The idea of writing this book started after observing students (foreign language learners of English) suffering from the lack of actual daily-life situations in the English used in their grammar course.

Some beginner students translate these rules into their native languages and fall at the danger of transfer. As a result, most of these courses have created a great deal of difficulty to students at all levels of their language proficiency.
