"Parsing was almost insufferably tedious. It was also very difficult. And both these deficiencies were intensified by the way grammar was taught. Typically, students were first made to memorize definitions and rules, and only when they could recite them accurately by rote were they expected to apply them to sentences."
(Kitty Burns Florey, "A Picture of Language." The New York Times, March 26, 2012)

I'm still memorizing rules.
