Chapter 1: Lesson 1: PhrasesI believe we first must begin with understanding what Grammar actually means.
Grammar is the structure of a language. It is not about what words mean but how they form and fit together. It is about how words are arranged in a sentence and provide rules that explain how they get used.
A phrase is a group of words that act as single part of a speech. It can be a noun, adjective, adverb or even a preposition.
Preposition – A word or group of words that show direction, location, or time, or introduce an object.
Let’s start with examples:
Maria’s favorite sweater was hanging from the line.
John found the sunset to be heart-stoppingly beautiful.
Before class, I crammed for the test.
Sally took his pet lizard into the house.

A NEW CHANGE
I am opening a new chapter here at Review Tales. It has been a while since I have wanted to make some changes and broaden the topics and subjects discussed on this website. As versatile as Review Tales is, I have decided to add some English and History lessons to the content of the page.
I know that I have many followers from across the world. English is not everyone’s first language and so I believe it will benefit them as much as it will benefit us, in refreshing our knowledge.
History is what makes and shapes us today. It is important, in my opinion, to learn from the past in order to create a better world.
The Topics For English Will Be:
Grammar
Language
Reading Fiction
Reading Nonfiction
Writing
The Topics For History Will Be:
The First Humans
First Civilizations
The Middle Ages
Renaissance and Reformation
The Age of Exploration
Revolution and Enlightenment
The Era of Imperialism
World Conflicts in the Early Twentieth Century
Post World War II: The World from 1945 to Today
I would love to hear your thoughts and if you are interested in this new chapter, then let me know!

Lean Stone Book Club kindly requested these short book reviews.
Etiquette is a wonderful book written about how you should behave and interact in social situations. Whether it is a family event or an official work related gathering, this book attempts to inform you on basic civil behavior that would increase your likeability and social calendar.
The only thing that I could recommend in improving this book would be to include pictures. The additional images would assist the reader in understanding the etiquettes such as, dinner table arrangements and other forms of mannerism that require measuring.
Nothing is more delighting to read about how much our mind and spirits are dependants, to social interactions. When the Internet and social networking now consumes all of our lives, many of our youth and even young adults are denied the knowledge of how to behave when they are at a party or a restaurant. I highly recommend this book to anyone that wishes to learn more on how to act when publicly interacting.
Afternoon Tea is a book written about everything to do with tea. It informs the reader on how to select your tea and recipes to compliment it. The book also manages to cover some historical facts about tea, which I enjoyed. Being British as I am, tea is very important in our culture and to read about how to prepare a perfect afternoon having tea, was very interesting to me.
I felt the book is ideally suited for an audience that appreciates a good cup of tea and nothing could beat the fact that a little knowledge of etiquette, can go a long way as well. I recommend this book to anyone that cares about tea and socializing.

As part of the rules for the award, Sam has asked me these questions:

These short book reviews were kindly requested by Lean Stone Book Club.
This is a book written about the benefits of practicing Fasting. As we all may know, fasting has been best known for its religious connections, however; this book discusses matter beyond that. It also emphasizes as a way to losing weight, to cleanse and to heal as well.
In the beginning, I was very intrigued to see what the book was going to offer and it did not disappoint. I particularly liked where the author discusses how fasting can even benefit people with mental health. It was very hard for me to find anything bad about the book and so I recommend it to anyone that wishes to know more about fasting, its history, and benefits.
This history book is a great addition to everything you need to know about Africa. It begins with explaining the three African civilizations, moving on to the Ancient Egyptians and the history of the great cities. The book is filled with references and backdates of many historical facts such as the great Zimbabwe Empire or the Kongo Kingdom followed by the European Colonization.
Africa is a great read on a nice weekend with a generous, warm cup of tea. It takes you back to many years ago and makes you forget about the world you live in now. The literature was very easy to understand, and the pace of the history telling was in a well-formatted way keeping you wanting to know more.
I recommend this book to anyone that likes to read on history and is interested in Africa.
