Accessible and easy to use, this corpus-based grammar is full of fresh insights about the behavior of the English, rigester differences and variation across speech and writing.It will prove equally beneficial for those who already love grammar and want to know more about it as well as those who are aware of the importance of grammar but are still afraid of approaching it...

3.0 out of 5 stars Great Reference, Difficult to Follow
I had to use this book for my Language Learning Teaching class and there were parts of the book that really helped me out in better understanding English grammar. However, this book is very complex and difficult to follow. Everything is really dense and the material seems harder that what it really is. Without the guidance of my professor I would of for sure been lost...

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent grammar book., January 11, 2009
This review is from: Longman Student Grammar of Spoken and Written English (Paperback)
An easy to read grammar book that ALSO includes information on using grammar in different registers (academic prose, news, fiction, and conversation). Wonderful for advanced learners studying English as a second language.

However, this book is very complex and difficult to follow. Everything is really dense and the material seems harder that what it really is. Without the guidance of my professor I would of for sure been lost trying to read and comprehend all the material.

3.0 out of 5 stars Longman Student Grammar of Spoken and Written English, September 27, 2007
This review is from: Longman Student Grammar of Spoken and Written English (Paperback)
Most of them explain clearly, but some parts are more complex to understand. There are many examples in the book, sometimes I confus a lot because looks similar. Overall, the book is good to read because you can get more knowledge that you do not know it before.

It is written by the very famous British English experts. It's excellent. I wish there would be an American English Grammar book like this.
