Consider the following piece of light-hearted punctuation
advice.

importance of grammar?
Imagine you are observing a trial involving a child witness. A
barrister is crossexamining the child. Consider these two
alternative forms of questioning and use the blank text box to
note answers the questions below.
1. What differences in grammatical form do you notice
between the two examples?
2. What sort of response does each question call for?
3. What potential problems can you foresee in the second
example?
4. Which do you think you are most likely to hear in a
courtroom?
• 1. What is formal grammar? What is functional
grammar? How do they differ?
• 2. In which other professional areas, apart from
education, does Geoff suggest an increased knowledge
of grammar might be put to use?
1. In the brief utterance
seen in the cartoon
above, try to describe
what is going on in
terms of the three
metafunctions.
2. How might these
three different
