Ten golden grammar rules

 Here are ten golden grammar rules in English:

  1. Use proper capitalization: Capitalize the first letter of proper nouns, the first letter of sentences, and the first letter of words in titles.

  2. Subject-verb agreement: Make sure the subject and verb agree in number and person.

  3. Use of articles: Use "a" before a word that starts with a consonant sound and "an" before a word that starts with a vowel sound. Use "the" to refer to a specific noun.

  4. Punctuation: Use punctuation marks such as commas, periods, and question marks to indicate the structure and meaning of a sentence.

  5. Pronouns: Use pronouns to avoid repetition of nouns. Make sure the pronoun agrees with the antecedent in gender, number, and person.

  6. Word order: Use correct word order to convey the intended meaning of a sentence.

  7. Use of adjectives and adverbs: Use adjectives to modify nouns and pronouns, and use adverbs to modify verbs, adjectives, and other adverbs.

  8. Use of prepositions: Use prepositions to indicate the relationship between words in a sentence.

  9. Use of conjunctions: Use conjunctions to connect words, phrases, and clauses in a sentence.

  10. Spelling: Use correct spelling of words, and pay attention to common spelling rules and patterns.

By following these golden grammar rules, you can communicate effectively in English and avoid common mistakes.
