It is the best way to express the mastery of a language efficiently comes when you can grip the art of communicating in good English. Your mastery of the language is reflected through the style of your writing. How perfectly you are manifesting your thoughts. There is a slight difference between the mastery of oral English and written English. Oral English can be adopted in any way but it is very hard to master the art of writing English with a lucid flair.

English grammar seems to be easy to understand but it is not that particular thing to be easily assimilated. It has intricacies inherent in it. It is seen frequently that the native speakers of English language can not stress on learning English grammar as they have the idea that it is their inborn quality to assimilate the language and use it in many ways.

We need to exercise the discipline as we advance into the rest of the paragraph. Our student, though, was not keeping to the rules, and so, as perhaps could be expected, the lack of control at the outset means that, by the third sentence, the writing begins more and more to fall apart as he wrestles with his ideas:

It was the first place of its kind, in America in this respect, also in the way he carefully detailed and drew up the system of government, to be implemented there, and proposal for future American colonies.

The student is trying to expand the reach of the essay, but stumbling in the attempt. The primary problem is again the fact that the student is thinking out loud, with the commas separating thought units rather than separating grammatical units; as such, the commas fail to contribute to the construction of meaning in the sentence, acting instead to make the writing jerky and less than clear.

We will try to sort out the problems step by step. The first main clause is:

What we are trying to demonstrate is how to join sentences together for an interesting piece of work. Readers can absorb more than one idea at a time and can feel frustrated by endless stops and starts; they are looking for information, stimulation, thoughts and points as well as an argument that involves them and takes them along. We should, however, make it clear that we are not contradicting here something we said earlier. We appear to be recommending the fusing of sentences. What we have in Blind, of course, is not fusing but instead joining sentences in a manner that Complies with all the basic rules about sentence structure and punctuation. We will, in addition, be showing how little phrases, such as in addition, can establish continuity and flow in a paragraph. Really, what we want to achieve is a paragraph where every sentence is as impressive as the student’s first sentence here:

At the turn of the century, Russia, both economically and politically, lagged behind the advanced industrial nations of Europe.

That is a confident sentence. It consists of a subject-verb-complement sequence (Russia-, lagged beh... Read more...
