Spanish

an essential grammar

Spanish: An Essential Grammar is a concise and user-friendly reference guide to the most important aspects of Spanish. It presents a fresh and accessible description of the language that combines traditional and function-based grammar. The book sets out the complexities of Spanish in short, readable sections, and explanations are clear and free from jargon.The Grammar is the ideal reference source for the learner and user of Spanish. It is suitable for either independent study or for students in schools, colleges, universities and adult classes of all types. Throughout the book reflects the fact that Spanish is a language of great international significance. Rather than being purely Peninsular, it is intercontinental and especially American.
Features include: clear distinctions between the essential/ basic aspects of Spanish grammar and more complex usage; full use of authentic examples vetted by native speakers, to understand explanations of areas that customarily pose problems for English speakers; different usages in Spain and Latin America are integrated throughout the text and identified by icons [SP] and [LA]; contents list and index for easy access to information.
