Salute to the Team of EnglishForward.com
Well.. guys, I had been thinking for a long time to write this post but I don't know what stopped me. Well I just wanted to say thanks to all of the teachers and students who have helped me with my grammar. Two months back, I wasen't able to differentiate between noun and verbs. I know most of you must be thinking what a jerk I am but thats the way I was. But now with the grace of God and with your help, I am far much better and the whole credit goes to the EnglishForward team.
But still I think I have a lot to learn. I mean, now I can learn further on my own but I don't know where to start. A major problem that I face is with the structure of the sentences and with the explanations that most of the teachers/experts give on this forums. They always talk like "adverbial cannot be used in this part of the sentence, plain infinitive can/cannot be used in this part of the sentence." Sorry I don't have any relevant explanation with me from the forum but I hope you guys can understand my problem. Actually, I have learned english in a very abrupt manner. Sometimes I used to start learning nouns, then I used to switch to the adverbials and then to something else. The point that I am trying to make is that is there any source on the internet where I can learn step by step (as we do in schools). If not, can someone guide me or give me a basic but thorough plan of how to polish my skillls or give me some source where there is a list of rule for grammar. I know this is too much to ask but I need to learn and I hope that you'll help me.
Once again, thanks everyone.

Hi GB,

It may be an old-fashioned suggestion, but have you tried using a good grammar book to approach English systematically?
Best wishes, Clive

Thanks for the suggestions but there is a problem with the books. Usually the books provide with the very basic knowlege about grammar as compared to with what I get on websites and this forums. But I think that I should strat reading a book and then ask questions here about further details (if I need any). Hmm.. that would be fine.

That sounds a very good plan! We can fill in the gaps.
