Question:
Is anyone aware of a good website discussing the use of definite, indef. and
zero
article in English?
I mean the kind of discussion - thorough, clear and precise.
More or less like the one in the R. Quirk's English Grammar.
I've been looking for this on the web, but what there is is total trash,
completely
useless, compatible only with tv-era.
Answer:
Sorry I can't give you a web page but I can refer you to a more normative
grammar than Quirk. This is R.W. Zandvoort's Handbook of English Grammar -
ninth edition J.B. Wolters Groningen - 1964. Originally written for Dutch
speakers you might find it more practical and directly applicable than the
more theoretical writings of later authorities. You could probably find it a
library.
