March 4 is a very important day for all language students. It is National Grammar Day (NGD). This is the day for you to be extra careful with your grammar in class. It is also a good day to promise yourself to make your grammar better. This day is not just for students. Many native speakers of all languages have terrible grammar and make many mistakes. There is an annual award for famous people with poor grammar and U.S. Presidents have won it in the past! NGD is also a day when teachers around the world need to review their teaching methods and make their activities better. If your grammar isn’t good, you can't always say what you mean. People might not always be able to guess what you want to say.

3月4日这一天对于所有学习语言的学生都非常重要。因为这天是国际语法日。在这一天当中,我们必须对我们在课堂上使用的语法格外注意。并承诺提高我们的语法水平。国际语法日不仅是学生的节日。有许多本国人的语法也非常糟糕,并多次犯错。每年都会为名人颁发最差语法奖,美国总统曾经获此殊荣!在国际语法日这一天,全世界的老师需要审视自己的教学方法,提高学生的语法。如果你的语法水平不高,那么你将不可能永远达意。人们也不可能总能够猜出你所表达的意思。

National Grammar Day was created by the Society for the Promotion of Good Grammar (SPOGG) and MSN Encarta. The NGD website says: “If we don't respect and honor the rules of English, we lose our ability to communicate clearly and well.” So what do we do on National Grammar Day? The folks at SPOGG advise us to: “Speak well! Write well! And on March 4, march forth and spread the word. If you see a sign with a catastrophic apostrophe, send a kind note to the storekeeper. If your local newscaster says "Between you and I," set him straight with a friendly e-mail.” The site offers ten top tips for good grammar and encourages visitors to send photos of public notices that contain bad grammar.

国际语法日是由美国语法促进协会和MSN微软百科全书共同创立。国际语法日官网称:“如果我们失去了对英语规则的尊重,那么我们就将失去了清晰,准确表达的能力。”那么,我们会在这一天干些什么?美国语法促进协会成员建议我们:“正确的口语表达!书写规范!在3月4日这一天,将正确语法传播世界。如果你看到带有省略号的标示,那么就向店主写上亲切的话语。如果当地新闻广播员说:“在你我之间”,那么就为他发去一封善意的电邮。”该网站为如何使用准确语法提供了10条建议,并鼓励浏览者将含有错误语法的公共标示通过照片的形式上传。
