In our introduction, we explain what we will do in Grammar for Gamers and why it should be useful to you when you play video games with native English speakers or when you communicate with anyone in English.

Nouns: Part 1

This is a short (2-minute) introduction to nouns, describing the different kinds of nouns and which group of nouns we will focus on most.

Nouns: Part 2

Another short (2-minute) lesson introducing the indefinite article (a, an) and countable and uncountable nouns. Notice how the meaning of a noun can change if you forget to use an article. What’s the difference between “a chicken” and “chicken”, for example?
