This book approaches the structure of English from a form-function
perspective that is both theoretical and practical. It asks learners
to consider meaning, structure, and use, in contrast to many grammars
that focus mainly on structure, sometimes to the exclusion of use and
even meaning. The book presents an extended introduction to areas of
grammar that many would see as indispensable, such as participial and
infinitive phrases. The analysis is achieved largely through
form-function tree diagramming and extends the basic structures to
include finite and nonfinite predicates.
