Description
'Practising Spanish Grammar' offers a comprehensive set of varied exercises for developing a greater practical awareness of the language. It is designed as a companion volume to the widely acclaimed 'New Reference Grammar of Modern Spanish' by John Butt and Carmen Benjamin. It can also be used on its own by anyone wishing to improve their proficiency in Spanish. Giving attention to both Peninsular and Latin American varieties of the language, the workbook includes examples of authentic Spanish from journalistic and literary extracts, and from colloquial usage. The exercises are graded according to difficulty as follows: level 1 - basic drills for revision of essential points; level 2 - intermediate exercises covering standard usage; level 3 - advanced assignments and work on non-standard usage. A key to the exercises is provided making this workbook suitable for self-assessment as well as classroom use.
