Description

This new edition provides students, teachers and others interested in the German language with a comprehensive, accessible and jargon-free guide to the forms and structures of German as it is currently spoken and written in Germany. It includes descriptions of all the main grammatical phenomena of German and their use, illustrated by many examples of contemporary German. The most common levels of usage (formal and informal) are distinguished, as are regional variations, and special attention has been given to students' needs, with extended explanations of difficult grammatical points for English-speaking learners.
