Abstract:

Editor’s Note: This is a new edition of a previously announced book.

With more than 50 years of teaching experience between them, Ilse Depraetere
and Chad Langford present a grammar pitched precisely at advanced learners of
English who need to understand how the English language really works without
getting lost in the complex specifics.

Now fully updated and revised throughout, the second edition of this book
pulls from linguistic theory all the relevant notions that will enable the
language student to fully grasp English grammar. After introducing form and
function, the authors cover verbs, nouns, aspect and tense, modality and
discourse. Readers are led through the underlying principles of language use,
with the book presupposing only a basic grasp of linguistic terminology and
focusing on the critical issues. Full of challenging exercises and supported
by a companion website featuring an extensive answer key, a glossary and
further exercises for study, this is the reference grammar of choice for both
native and non-native English speakers.
