Learn English grammar the easy way with this unique guide from Teach Yourself - the No. 1 brand in language learning. It explains the rules in a clear and simple way to help you avoid all the common mistakes. There is lots of opportunity for you to practise choosing forms and making sentences, so you can speak and write with confidence.
You don't need to know a lot about grammar before you start using this book. Everything is explained simply and there are lots of examples to illustrate each point. Unlike more traditional grammars, Grammar for English as a Foreign Language is structured so that you can look up language forms according to what you want to say, even if you don't know the grammatical term for them. If you already know some grammar, then you can use the 'reference grammar' section at the back of the book to look up the points you need.
The course consists of 54 units illustrating the various uses to which the language can be put, for example, giving instructions or talking about the recent past. The more traditional reference grammar deals with grammatical structures, such as the imperative or the perfect tense. All grammatical terms are explained in the glossary at the back of the book. Each unit contains exercises for you to practice what you have learnt and there is a key at the back of the book for you to check your answers. The new page design in this edition means that the book is even easier to use and the main headings are in English so that you can find your way around the book quickly. This edition contains a 'taking it further' section which will direct you to further sources of real English grammar as a Foreign Language.
