GrammarClause
Main clause/Independent clause: Sentences that express a complete thought and can be a
sentence by itself.
Relative clause
Defining relative clause/restrictive relative clause: To give essential information about
someone or something – info that we need in order to understand what or who is being
referred to. A defining relative clause usually comes immediately after the noun it describes.
They are the people who want to buy our house.
Non-defining relative clause/non-restrictive relative clause: To give extra information
about the person or thing. It is not necessary information. We do not need it to understand
who or what is being referred to.
Clare, who I work with, is doing the London marathon this year.
Nouns: Identifies a person, thing, idea, quality or state such as anger, courage, life, luckiness
etc.
Uncountable/Non-count nouns: Used with singular verbs, we cannot use a/an and do not
add -s. Words that you cannot count.
Countable nouns/Count nouns: Have singular and plural forms +s. You can count the
words.
The possessive form of nouns/The genitive case: Different ways to show ownership of
something. To show possession you can use nouns to modify other nouns. For purposes of
clarity, we distinguish between the genitive case possessive case here). The possessive pattern
of mark (‘s) is generally used when indicating a relation of ownership or association with a
person, rather than a thing. The genitive case with the use of the form ‘of’. The door of the
car.
Agreement/Concord: A singular subject takes a singular verb, and a plural subject takes a
plural verb. When ‘a pair of’ is used, the verb must be singular. The words ‘police and
headquarter’ attracts plural verbs.

,Question tags/tag questions: Question tags are the short questions that we put on the end of
the sentences – particularly in spoken English.

and vice versa.

OI – Indirect object = for who or to who(m).
Example: Jimmy builds his grandfather a sandcastle. Jimmy (subject) + builds (verb) + what
did Jimmy build? A sandcastle = Direct object + for who did Jimmy build a sandcastle
His grandfather = Indirect object.
CS – Subject compliment = an adjective, noun or pronoun that follows a linking verb.

something about Brandon’s face. It tells you something about the subject. Usually with – is,
was, were.

Example: All he wanted was to make her happy happy is the object compliment because it

Types of Court:
The Supreme Court: is the final court of appeal in the UK for all civil cases, as well as for
criminal cases originating in England, Wales and Northern Ireland. Because of parliamentary
sovereignty the Supreme Court is much more limited in its powers of judicial review than the
constitutional or supreme courts of some other countries.
The High Court: Also known as ‘Her Majesty’s High Court of Justice in England’ , together
with the Court of Appeal and the Crown Court, are the Senior Courts of England and Wales.
The High Court deals at first instance with all high value and high importance civil law (non-
criminal) cases, and also has a supervisory jurisdiction over all subordinate courts and
tribunals. The High Court consists of three divisions: Queen’s Bench Division, the Chancery
Division, and the Family Division.
The Court of Appeal: is the highest court withing the Senior Courts of England and Wales,
and second in the legal system. Created in 1875 and today comprises 39 Lord Justices of
Appeal and Lady Justices of Appeal. The court has two division, Criminal and Civil, led by
the Lord Chief Justice and the Master of the Rolls and Records of the Chancery of England
respectively. The Criminal Division also hears appeals from the Crown Court, while the Civil
Division hears appeals from the County Court, High Court of Justice and Family Court.
,Permission to appeal is normally required from either the lower court or the Court of Appeal
itself; and with permission, further appeal may lie to the Supreme Court.
The Crown Court: is together with the High Courts of Justice and the Court of Appeal, one of
the constituent parts of the Senior Courts of England and Wales. It is the highest court of first
instance in criminal cases; however, for some purposes the Crown Court is hierarchically
subordinate to the High Court and its Divisional Courts. The Crown Court carries out four
principal types of activity: appeals from decisions of magistrates; sentencing of defendants
committed from magistrates’ courts, jury trials, and the sentencing of those who are convicted
in the Crown Court, either after trial or on pleading guilty.
Magistrates’ Court: is a lower court where, in several jurisdictions which holds trials for
summary offences and preliminary hearings for more serious ones. Some civil matters are
also decided here, notably family proceedings. Cases are heard by a bench of three lay judges
or by a paid district judge; there is no jury at a magistrates’ court.
Juries:
Criminal jury: made of 12 members. They decide whether the defendant committed the crime
as charged. The decisions must be unanimous.
Civil jury: are restricted to cases involving defamation, false imprisonment or malicious
prosecution. Typically made up of 6 to 12 persons. Role of jury is to listen to the evidence
presented at a trial, to decide whether the defendant injured the plaintiff or otherwise failed to
fulfill a legal duty to the plaintiff, and to determine what the compensation or penalty should
be.
Law systems:
Common law: is the body of law created by judges and similar quasi-judicial tribunals by
virtue of being stated in written opinions. These laws have been created after the Norman
Conquest in 1066.
Civil law: refers to non-criminal law. The law relating to civil wrongs and quasi-contracts is
part of the civil law, as is law of property. This law (like criminal law) may be divided into
substantive law and procedural law. The rights and duties of persons amongst themselves is
the primary concern of civil law.
Criminal law: concerns offences, their prevention and the consequences. The two basic
elements of a crime are the act of doing that which is criminal, and the intention to carry it
out.
Separate Legal System in Scotland: Scotland joined England to form the U.K. by the Act of
Union of 1707. However, Scotland had a long-standing legal tradition at the time, and the Act
of Union expressly preserved the existing Scottish courts and legal system. As a result,
Scotland has continuously formed a separate legal jurisdiction with its own courts. In general,
the Scottish legal system is a hybrid, combining elements of the common law tradition with
elements of the Roman law tradition, imported via Dutch and French legal influence. The
growth of statute law has lessened the differences between English and Scots law, but
differences remain, especially in private law and criminal law. Devolution has reinvigorated
the distinct identity of the Scottish legal system by introducing a Scottish Parliament with
jurisdiction to enact statutes in many important subject areas.
