You should not memorize the terms unless you are asked to do that. You only have to understand what is there in the definition of the term, relying of course on a good English-English dictionary. Then you can apply whatever grammatical rules it contains on what you have. Understanding will always serve you better. Well, this is what I usually do, and I still use this method until now.

Wish you all the best *ورود

SalwaAngel,

Husam,

Thanks a lot Husam for your participation ^^

To me, I think that

- understanding 2- repeating 3-writing …are the best ways to be good in this subject. :wink:

Hope you the best.

Ranaa,
You're welcome!

Well, many people find this helpful, but for me understanding the core of the term or the piece of grammar will make you able to deal with any problem you face. However, people who rely heavily on memorization will always be confused about what to do. Understanding comes in the first place; this always worked with me...
