Synopsis

Essential German Grammar is a student-friendly grammar and workbook designed to give learners a firm foundation on which to build a real understanding of both spoken and written German. The reference grammar section offers clear explanations of key grammar points while a separate exercise section gives students the opportunity to test themselves and put into practice what they have learned.

This new edition has been revised and updated throughout. Explanations, tables and exercises have been improved and a number of new texts and illustrations from authentic published sources have replaced previous material. Key features of this third edition include:

• User-friendly layout with engaging illustrations and visually appealing tables throughout to aid the learning process
• Clear and accessible explanations with memorable examples informed by the latest research on the German language and presented in accordance with current teaching methodology
• New section on ways in which German speakers are responding to the complex interplay between grammatical, biological and social gender
• Helpful translations and parallels between English and German provided where relevant
• End-of-chapter extracts taken from contemporary journalistic or authentic literary sources, illustrating grammar in context, with model translations provided at the back of the book
• Material to enable better strategic learning and understanding, including a Why Grammar? FAQ section, a glossary of grammatical terms in both English and German and a complete answer key to exercises
• Instructor and Student Resources at www.routledge.com/cw/kaiser offering a wealth of additional materials, including interactive exercises and quizzes for each chapter to test student understanding, as well as PowerPoint slides for instructors illustrating the main grammar points from the book.

Written by highly experienced lecturers in the field, Essential German Grammar is an invaluable resource for intermediate and advanced students of German (CEFR levels A2 to B2, ACTFL Novice High to Intermediate High). It is designed to function equally as a free-standing grammar or as a foundation grammar for Hammer's German Grammar and Usage and is suitable for both classroom use and self-study.
