About this ebook
Guaranteed Not to Be Confusing
Don't Ever Be Confused by Grammar Again. Take a "bite" out of Grammar with No Mistakes Grammar Bites.
It seems as if many dictionaries and books on grammar do their best to confuse people. Words and explanations are defined using grammatical terminology that is difficult to understand; in fact, if you knew that terminology, you probably wouldn't have to look up the words to begin with.
We're aiming to get rid of that and explain things in plain English, using language that is easy to understand.
Try it out and see for yourself. If you find these books confusing, write to me and get a refund; they're guaranteed.

Introduction
Grammar is important, but far too many people seem to want it to be difficult.
Grammar should be easy to learn, at least that’s what we believe. With that in mind, I’ve written several grammar books for adults and several for children. (The No Mistakes Grammar and No Mistakes Grammar for Kids series).
Continuing along the lines of making grammar easy, I’ve written a new series: No Mistakes Grammar Bites, which will consist of several books, each dealing with two grammar lessons that seem to give people trouble. I’ll try to explain them thoroughly but in as much plain language
as possible. No grammatical terminology unless necessary, and it shouldn’t be necessary.
