Grammar Rules

Grammar rules refer to sentence structure and parts of speech; including nouns, pronouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, prepositions and conjunctions. 

When an ‘I’ is on its own, capitalise it.

For example: Today, I am going out shopping with my friends. 

When contracting a word, add the apostrophe between where the two words meet.

For example: You are, becomes you’re.

I am, becomes I’m.

We are, becomes we’re.

Adjectives come before the noun, always.

For example:  The big, black cat runs away.

If the next word you’re going to say starts with a vowel, and you’re using ‘a’, turn the ‘a’ into ‘an’.

For example: I have a apple, becomes I have an apple.
