Introduction

Two main techniques have been used in this book. One is to relate the

words with the colors, and the other is to see the sentence with the perspective of the

kinds of the words. Every kind of the word has been given a particular color, the

word is written in that font color.

Terms more than one for the same thing causes confusion for the

learner. Terms just like “articles” and “determiners” for “adjectives” are also

exempted to avoid it. Even the terms “parts of speech” and “verbals” are not

mentioned.

Most of the Grammar books are lengthy. A reader’s mind gets

confused seeing so many things and their kinds at a time .The important things are

not highlighted accordingly. This book contains the most important words of the

English Language. All other information not concerned with the concept of the

words is omitted. This is not an informative book. This is a conceptual book.

Learning not only depends upon reading and observation. It is

attention that causes learning and higher levels of attention speeds up the learning.

A book that saves a reader from attention diversion is a good source of learning.

The book is well targeted a ccording to the aims and objectives. The aim of writing

this book is to bring the things in attention of the reader according to their

importance.
