- The English grammar describes how meanings are encoded through word order, phrases, clauses and sentences in the English language. There are some variations across dialects of English.
- Nouns name people, places or things. Verbs express actions or states. Adjectives describe nouns and pronouns substitute nouns. Adverbs modify verbs, adjectives or other adverbs. Prepositions show relationships of time, place or direction between nouns or pronouns. Conjunctions join words or sentences.
- While English and Spanish share many similarities as alphabetical languages using the Roman alphabet, there are some differences in pronunciation, word order and punctuation conventions between the two grammars.
1. Dinition of EnglishGrammar
The grammar of the l English language presents many of the typical features of
the European languages. The name presents difference between singularly and
plurally. In English modern, unlike his predecessor the ancient Englishman, the
name does not do distinctions of kind or case. The differences of case and kind
are restricted in English modern to the pronoun, as it happens for example in
the languages romances.
In the verbal system the English, as the German and the languages romances,
has suffered a similar evolution. They have been created " compound forms of
perfectly " to express the perfect aspect and " you form perifrásticas " with the
verb to be to express the progressive or constant aspect. Another similarity is
the development of forms of future from auxiliary verbs. An important
difference between the Englishman and other Germanic languages and
romances is the weakening of a subjunctive way. Equally the Englishman, as the
German, the Dutch or the Romanesque languages, has created definite genuine
articles from demonstrative forms.
2. • The English grammar is the way in which meanings are
encoded into wordings in the English language. This
includes the structure of words, phrases, clauses,
and sentences, right up to the structure of whole texts.
• There are historical, social, cultural and regional
variations of English. Divergences from
the grammar described here occur in some dialects. This
article describes a generalized present-day standard
English a form of speech and writing used in public
discourse, including broadcasting, education,
entertainment, government, and news, over a range of
registers from formal to informal. There are differences
in grammar between the standard forms
of British, American, and Australian English, although
these are more minor than differences
in vocabulary and pronunciation.
3. Classification of the
English Grammar
A noun is a word that there names a person, a
place or a thing. ,
Example:
Sarah, lady, cat, New York, Canada, room,
school, football, reading.

Latin word nomen, which means "name", and
the nouns really are used to name persons,
places and things.
Substantive

The word "adverb" has his root of the Latin ad -

In many cases (but not always!) the
adverbs have the following form:
Adjective + "-ly“

7. Different English Grammar
• The Spanish has only five sounds of members whereas the Englishman
has more than 14, according to the regional dialects.
• The consonants v, ll, h, j, r, rr, z, and x have very different pronunciations
in both languages. The consonant ñ does not exist in English; on the other
hand, the sound that she represents is written by two letters, ny
• They declare some combinations in a different way.
• In Spanish, the scripts are in use instead of the inverted commas as
brand of dialog: " He Eats here, " I have said. - come here he said to him.
• The sustantive in English do not have genre
8. It is not a question of a difference that it
impedes very much the language, except when
we have to place several adjectives. They
place this way: the one that describes a
more intrinsic characteristic to the noun is
the one that goes more nearby, which
expresses a more general opinion, the most
distant.
•The nEgation is simple
Only it is possible to denied once
•The adjectives go before the
substantive
This difference is one of the reasons for which we say that the English
grammar is easy. It is all the same that you speak about a dog or an
apple, in English we will say the/a dog or the/an Apple The only thing
with what we must have care is that when we place a personal pronoun
to substitutea noun. It is necessary to bear in mind that he/she only is
used for persons and, strange, for animals.
It is not possible to omit the
subject when on he deals, this owes
to itself to that the verbs in
English do not conjugate (good, to
sorrow) and therefore it does not
indicate us the kind or number of
the subject, for what this
information only us her contributes
the subject, If we do not want to
repeat, we must use a personal
pronoun.
•The subject is
necessary
9. •The capital letters and signs of
punctuation are used of it forms lightly
different
They are used of different form, it is
necessary to bear them in mind at the moment
of writing.
For example:
-The days of the week, months and languages
are written in capital letter in English.
-The signs of admiration and interrogation
only are used ultimately in English.
-In English, on having put something within
quotation marks " " the signs of punctuation
stay inside, nevertheless, in Spanish put
out.
•The structure of
the sentences
Every word inside a
sentence in Spanish, has
a complete, exact enough
meaning, every word in
Castilian, has a clear
content. On the other
hand, in English, every
word has a definite
content, the accuracy of
a meaning, depends on
several words.
10. Comparison between the English Grammar and
Spanish
•Both are alphabetical languages, which means that there use
symbols (letters) about representing the sounds and both
languages using the Roman alphabet.
•The 30 % to 40 % of all the words in English has a word related in
Spanish. With similar sound, aspect and meaning.
•Except for a couple of exceptions in the order of the words (I
modify before the noun in English and noun before the adjective in
Spanish), the prayers in both languages have the same basic
structures.
•The same basic components take part of the learning to read in
both languages: phonemic recognition, phonetics, fluency,
comprehension and vocabulary.
