Speaking Southern, Writing English: Essential Grammar Skills

By Wendy Jean Frandsen

Speaking Southern, Writing English is a grammar book for adult students who are writing at a middle-school level. Its premise is that students naturally write in the dialect that is familiar to them and cannot ''hear'' their errors; therefore, they must learn to proofread for them. The book is intended to give students basic mastery of grammar in their own writing by giving them simple rules and practical proofreading strategies with lots of practice. The explanations and exercises are written in familiar vocabulary, on familiar topics, at an easy reading level.
