Relevant aspects are: • grammatical terminology • word classes, phrases and functional categories • tense and aspect • verb complementation • the status of semantic roles • the lexicographic description of grammatical phenomena in English pedagogical dictionaries

An in-depth discussion of selected grammar topics and their analysis in text-based exercises, with a focus on explanatory grammar in context.
