Setting “The mystery and amusement of words” as a theme, we learned about the rule of English grammar by translating the lyrics and words in pictures. Especially focusing on the world broaden by ‘pronoun’, ‘plural’, and ‘proposition’, we realized that grammar isn’t merely a rule constructing sentences, but is also a reflection of our mind therefore it is rather humane. By listening to today’s lecture, we got to feel closer to English than ever before.
