Why build your own grammar quiz

Example grammar quiz questions with answers

Which is correct: 'Neither the teacher nor the students were ready' or 'Neither the teacher nor the students was ready'?'Were' is correct. With neither...nor, the verb agrees with the nearer subject, which here is the plural 'students'.

True or false: 'Its' and 'it's' mean the same thing.False. 'It's' is a contraction of 'it is' or 'it has', while 'its' is a possessive pronoun meaning belonging to it.

Fill in the blank: She has been studying ___ three hours. (for or since)'For'. Use 'for' with a span of time, such as three hours, and 'since' with a starting point, such as 9 a.m.

Identify the dangling modifier: 'Walking to class, the rain soaked my notebook.''Walking to class' dangles because it modifies 'the rain'. Revise to 'Walking to class, I got my notebook soaked by the rain' so the subject is the person walking.

Choose the correct pronoun: Between you and ___, the plan seems weak. (I or me)'Me'. After a preposition such as 'between', the object pronoun is required, so the phrase is 'between you and me'.

Add a PDF, slides, a DOCX file, plain notes or a photo of a handout.

Choose your question types

Pick multiple choice, true/false or short answer, then generate the set.

Study and check the explanations

Answer the questions, read why each correct answer works, and retry the ones you missed.

DeckOwl reads your own notes, slides or PDF handouts and writes questions that use your course's examples, so the practice stays on the rules you are expected to know. Each answer comes with an explanation, which matters in grammar because the reason a sentence is wrong is the thing to remember.

Frequently asked questions

How many questions should a grammar quiz have for a single lesson?

Ten to fifteen questions is a practical range for one lesson, enough to test a rule in several sentence contexts without tiring the learner. Adjust the count based on how many rules the lesson covers.

Which grammar topics should I quiz first?

Start with the errors you make most in your own writing, such as subject-verb agreement, pronoun case and comma splices. Test each rule inside full sentences rather than in isolation.

Can I export a grammar quiz?

Exports are paid features. Plus includes PDF and DOCX export, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML, while the free plan lets you study in the browser.

Do I need a credit card to try it?

No. You can start on the free plan with three generations per month and no credit card.
