Introduction

English has become the language of the world. Learning it will help you communicate clearly with basically anyone. It’s not just a useful skill, it’s almost an essential skill.

This course will teach you the grammar.

Not how to write a good story. Not how to spell words. Not where to place punctuation. Those are taught in other courses, like Prose.

It’s all about grammar. How to construct a sentence. How to communicate whatever you want to say. How to combine words into a meaningful English sentence.

Yes, this course itself is also in English. I try to write as simply as possible. Short sentences, easy words. I also add simple icons/emojis to examples.

But some reading experience with English is helpful. This course explains everything, but isn’t as basic as some other courses.

You should view it as an easy introduction. Or a reminder of all the rules. Something that might fill gaps in your knowledge. A guide you can look up if you’ve forgotten something. (That’s also why there’s an easy cheat sheet at the end.)

One factor that led to English becoming the global language, is probably its easy grammar. This course is quite short—with sometimes tiny chapters—yet you won’t miss a thing!

At the same time, though, English has a huge vocabulary. There are often lots of ways to say the same thing in English. Or to say something with subtle differences.

You will only learn the fine details (and many words) by reading and writing a lot yourself. This course is all about grammar.

I hope you find it useful!
