Editorial Reviews
Book Description
This innovative reference guide to Spanish combines traditional and function-based grammar in a single volume. Its format is easily accessible and example-driven throughout. Divided into two parts, the shorter section covers traditional grammatical categories such as word order, nouns, verbs, and adjectives. The larger section is carefully organized around language functions, including giving and seeking information; putting actions into context; expressing likes, dislikes and preferences; and comparing objects and actions.

All grammar points and functions are richly illustrated and information is provided on register and relevant cultural background. The authors emphasize contemporary usage and pay particular attention to indexing and cross-referencing across the two sections. No prior knowledge of grammatical terminology is required and a glossary of terms is provided.

About the Author
Christopher Pountain teaches at Queen's College, Cambridge University. Juan Kattan-Ibarra is a freelance writer.
