First off, I know the importance of USING good grammar.
I use proper grammar all the time, whether it is necessary or not.
However, I hate LEARNING about grammar for the fifty seventh time straight in school. Every single effing year, we learn about sentences, what is a sentence, what is not a sentence, how to make sentences make sense, all the stuff that's important to know.
But that's not the point. Or maybe it is...I'm thinking more along the lines of what HAS no point: learning about things like subordinating whatsits, coordinating thingamabobs, and compound complex whosa-ma-things.
The only reason I'm not doing well in language arts at this moment is because I'm trying to memorize the differences between ten grillion different types of sentences.
If I can properly use this stuff in a 5 page essay, what is the point of knowing how to identify whether one sentence is a subordinating something-or-other, or a compounding whatever-it's-called?
It's really pissing me off, because grammar used to be the one thing I could count on being good at during school. I suck at math, and history bores me as close to death as it is possible to come without actually dying..
Anyone else care to share their views on this matter?
