Description
Pasos Spanish Practical Grammar is a brand new reference and grammar practice book containing clear, accessible grammar explanations with examples and extension in both Spanish and English. All the explanations follow a simple two-step approach: basic rules, forms and examples are presented in a simple and accessible way (corresponding to Levels A1 and A2 of the Common European Framework) before learners move on to further and more complex uses and forms of the same items (Levels B1 and B2 of the CEFR).Throughout there are examples of everyday language to show grammar being used naturally, and these are paired with translations illustrating how the two languages coincide or differ. The book also contains a glossary of grammatical terms, Latin American variants of grammar rules and guidance on pronunciation and spelling. Numerous cross-references highlight related grammatical points. There is a wealth of practice and extension tasks designed to complement the grammar, test your knowledge and help you consolidate what you have learnt. The book is ideal for learners wishing to study Spanish grammar systematically as well as those who are looking to practise their grammar skills at a deeper level.
