| Research Abstract |
Aims of this study are to spread the rationale of new methodology of teaching English grammar called EPictGramm all over the world and to make this applied to classrooms by English teachers in each country. EPictGramm is innovative in that the function of parts of speech is presented by diagrammatic illustrations. The primitive ideas enables us to enhance our adaptabilities to more complicated sentences in which relative pronoun, passive voice or other sophisticated items are comprised of.
EPictGramm starts with explanation of illustrated vehicles relevant to the five basic sentence patterns, along with icons standing for some parts of speech such as the adverb, preposition and so on. More enhanced areas of this theory addresses the gerund, the passive voice, and the relative pronoun. Therefore, diagrammatic illustrations help learners to comprehend the concept of grammar and the structure of English with a lot of fun by minimizing verbal explanations.
