Grammar Nazi's (Mostly Pirate)

Could guys please teach me English grammar? I need to learn for my SAT which I'm taking later on this year. When I took my Pre-Sat Test my lowest scores were in English and Writing, so any help would be appreciated

I could go through and correct his entire post, but I don't really feel like it.

Re: Grammar Nazi's (Mostly Pirate)

When you're typing in English, make sure to use full words, at all times. It helps for you to remember how to actually spell. Acronyms are okay, but don't over do it.
There aren't that many rules in English grammar, it's quite simple in comparison to other languages.
Make sure your web browser has a built in spell check, Google Chrome even has a built in, albeit basic, grammar checker.

I don't know what year level you're in, so I'm not sure how strict they'd be on your structure, or which English you're using as your base, probably American English?
American English is a lot more slack than British, or Australian English, but if you'd like to, you could always study British English: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://learnenglish.britishcouncil.org/en/english-grammar">http://learnenglish.britishcouncil.org/ ... sh-grammar</a><!-- m -->
Just remember that some words are spelled differently, like; colour, favourite, minimise, maximise etc.

He's from Florida; hence its most likley American English. SAT's are taken in your Senior year, so that would probably put him at just passing Junior year.

With English like that, I doubt he'd be wanting help from you.

Beasty, we don't use grades like that year, so I still have no idea what year level he'd be in. We go from R-12 (in S.A is Reception to Year 12, other states call "Reception" something different though). <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Education_in_Australia">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Education_in_Australia</a><!-- m -->

Re: Grammar Nazi's (Mostly Pirate)

I'm in junior year (11th) or will be after summer. I am probably going to take it, hopefully 2 to 3 times, the last time being around April.
