MODERN ITALIAN GRAMMAR: A PRACTICAL GUIDE

This new edition of the 'Modern Italian Grammar' is an innovative reference guide to Italian, combining traditional and function-based grammar in a single volume. With a strong emphasis on contemporary usage, all grammar points and functions are richly illustrated with examples.

Implementing feedback from users of the first edition, this text includes clearer explanations, as well as a greater emphasis on areas of particular difficulty for learners of Italian. Divided into two sections, the book covers:

traditional grammatical categories such as word order, nouns, verbs and adjectives; language functions and notions such as giving and seeking information, describing processes and results, and expressing likes, dislikes and preferences.
