Can you recommend any good English grammar books for intermediate and advanced learners? Some of my favourites are:
*English Grammar in Use (Raymond Murphy)
*Essential English Grammar (Raymond Murphy)
(the whole IN USE series is really good including the supplementary exercises that can be bought separately)
*Living English Structure (Longman publication)

This isn't strictly grammar, but R. L. Trask's Mind the Gaffe! is great. And funny.
One entry explains how a fully gramatical sentence can make absolutely no sense at all. One of the examples is:
... which is perfectly gramatical, but absolutely nuts.

I really like working with Practical English Usage by Michael Swan.

Hi! I found the new oxford guide to writing is very interesting.
I just joint today and I don't know very much what should I do and where should I go. Even after this I have to think it over if after I leave this site how can I come back again??
