A Grammar of Late Modern English
A Grammar of Late Modern English, by Dutch linguist Hendrik Poutsma, is a landmark multi-volume scholarly reference covering the parts of speech, syntax, and usage of English as spoken in the late modern period, compiled specifically for continental, especially Dutch, students of the language. First published in 1914 and expanded across further sections through the 1920s, it remains a significant historical resource in English linguistics and grammar scholarship.
