Abstract:

Written for beginning learners of the language, this concise
introduction to Chinese grammar assumes only a basic knowledge of
Chinese, and no knowledge of grammatical terminology and practices.
Comparing Chinese grammar patterns and rules with those of English,
and illustrated with a wealth of real-life examples, it allows
learners to understand the similarities and differences between the
two languages. Using engaging and accessible language, it examines the
Chinese sound system, writing system, word formation rules, parts of
speech, and simple and complex sentences, as well as explaining
special constructions that are typically challenging to second
language learners. Each chapter begins with clear learning goals and
ends with a useful summary highlighting the chapter's main points. To
call attention to specific issues, sidebars are interspersed
throughout the text, and exercises within the book and online answer
keys help students to reinforce learned material and assist with
self-study.
