Abstract:

"Greek: A Comprehensive Grammar of the Modern Language" has become 
firmly established as the leading reference guide to modern Greek grammar. 
With its detailed treatment of all grammatical structures, its analysis of the 
complexities of the language and its particular attention to areas of confusion 
and difficulty, it is the first truly comprehensive grammar of the language to 
be produced. It provides a study of the real patterns of use in contemporary 
Greek

This second edition continues to focus on the Greek spoken and written by 
native speakers today. Taking account of recent changes to the Greek 
language, this new edition features:

-Significantly expanded material on many areas, including syntax and 
phonology

-A new chapter on derivational morphology and other word formation 
processes including compounding and acronym formation

-Examples drawn from everyday spoken usage as well as official, journalistic 
and online discourse, such as newspapers, blogs and discussion groups

-A significantly expanded index of English terms and Greek words and a 
revised glossary of terms.

The Grammar will be an essential reference source for the adult learner and 
user of Greek. It is ideal for independent study and for use in schools, 
colleges, universities and adult classes, up to an advanced level.
