Rezumat

In its first part, the paper deals with standardization and prescriptivism, and their relationship with language education, while in the second, it considers a few examples of grammatical structures which have been the target of prescriptivism for centuries: will vs. shall, the stranded preposition, the split infinitive, and the mandative subjunctive. Their current status, and the impact that prescriptive rules promoted by language education has had on them is revealed based on the results of recent corpus studies.
