Government of IndiaThe Philosophy of Grammar
Author: Jespersen, Otto
Publisher: George Allen and Unwin Ltd., London
Description: The philosophy of grammar was written by Otto Jesperson. This book was published in the year 1951. As per the writer, the shortcomings of the current grammatical theory are due to the fact that grammar has been chiefly studied in connexion with ancient languages known only through the medium of writing and that a correct apprehension of the essential nature of language can only be obtained when the study is based in the first place on the direct observation of living speech and only secondarily on written and printed documents.
