THE KNOWLEDGE YOU NEED TO BE A GRAMMAR GURU.

How you speak and write can say a lot about you. Grammar makes a lasting impression, but learning it can seem like a never-ending parade of complicated and contradictory rules! That’s why we at The Princeton Review created Grammar Smart—instead of boring you with countless rules and confusing grammatical terms, this book takes a fun approach to showing the logic behind each correct sentence.

This updated fourth edition of Grammar Smart brings you:
• In-depth reviews of the basic parts of speech
• Tips on how to avoid misplaced modifiers and dangling participles
• A glossary of key grammar terms
• Quick quizzes throughout the book to help you check your progress
• Detailed sentence diagrams to help you identify word classes
• Comprehensive summaries of each major grammar topic
The experts at The Princeton Review have been empowering students, parents, and teachers to achieve their best results at every stage of the education process since 1981. The Princeton Review has helped millions succeed on standardized tests and navigate the complexities of school admission. In addition to classroom courses in more than forty states and twenty countries, The Princeton Review also offers online courses, one-to-one and small-group tutoring, and online services in both admission counseling and academic homework assistance.
