V. Lesson Proper
- Mechanics are to writing what grammar is to speech. In other words, writing mechanics is the
set of rules and principles that make writing clear and easy to understand.
- Effective writing requires that language is not just grammatically correct, but that it’s also
written in the correct way. That’s where mechanics comes in.
Importance:
- Clarity - Proper writing mechanics helps your sentences communicate clearly and correctly, so
the reader understands your intent and can follow your train of thought.
- Focus- Spelling and grammatical mistakes draw focus away from your subject, detracting from
what you intend to communicate.
- Professionalism- Correct mechanics is essential for professionalism.
The parts of speech are the basic categories that words belong to, and they govern how the words
relate to each other. Writers need to understand nouns and pronouns, verbs and adverbs, and how
to correctly use prepositions and conjunctions.
2. Sentence Structure
A complete sentence contains at least a subject and a verb. A typical English sentence uses the word
order subject+verb+object (“the boy bounced the ball”), but there are a huge range of correct ways
to put together a sentence.
