Grammar

There are loads of websites which try to help you with your English grammar. A few of them are good, many more of them are, to be honest, absolute rubbish. I'll try to give you what I think are some of the better websites which focus on grammar. Don't forget, good newspaper and magazine sites are often a great source of well-written English.

Here are some of my favourite grammar sites:

What is a sentence? (RMIT Writing Lab)

BBC Ask about English 

British Council 

Grammar Movies from the BC

Grammar Quizzes

Edufind English grammar

University of Victoria Reference Tools

Viv Quarry   -  this isn't a visually attractive site, but the information is very reliable.

Grammar Bytes

Ego4U   -    it's not pretty, but it's useful


Free English   -   Some nice, simple grammar

University of Illinois - Grammar Handbook

Guide to Grammar and Writing - CCC Foundation


Here's a diagnostic grammar test - try the Intermediate test to make you feel good (hopefully..), then do the Advanced and see how you feel after that...
