I. Writing In The Law Office (cont.)
B. Common Grammar Problems
Common sense would dictate that in order to recognize common grammar problems, one must be familiar with common grammar rules.
This manual is not designed to replace a good grammar book. In fact, it is inadequate to replace a substandard grammar book.
Instead, it provides just enough grammar to illustrate common grammatical errors found in legal writing.
Here is a quick overview of the major topics addressed in this section:
- Parts of speech
(but you will not be required to diagram a sentence) - Verb tenses
- Who/whose/whom
- Plural forms of words
- Prepositions
- Moods
- Split Infinitives
- Prepositional Phrases
- Between vs. among
- Conjunctions
