Synopsis

Master French grammar with a clear, student‑friendly approach for second‑year learners.

This elementary course presents the core rules, practice exercises, and up‑to‑date vocabularies in a well‑organized format designed to build confidence and independence in reading and writing French.

Structured to bridge from beginner work to more advanced study, this edition emphasizes practical usage and gradual mastery. It introduces essential verb forms, tenses, and moods, then adds in the parts of speech, pronouns, adjectives, and adverbs, all with targeted drills. Appendices and vocabulary lists have been refreshed to help students express themselves more fluently in everyday French.

• Clear explanations of verb conjugations, tenses, and reflective forms
• Extensive exercises and controlled drills to reinforce skills
• Worked examples and practice with pronouns, adjectives, and adverbs
• Rewritten vocabularies to expand phrasing and accuracy

Ideal for learners preparing for year two, classroom use, or self‑study with steady progression.

Progressive French Course II: Elementary grammar and practice for second‑year learners with exercises, notes, and vocabularies.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Excerpt from Macmillan's Progressive French Course: II Second Tear, Containing an Elementary Grammar, With Copious Exercise, Notes, and Vocabularies

The ever-increasing calls for new Editions of this Class-book, so far from justifying the compiler in resting on his oars, put him under the obligation of bringing it still nearer to the wants of teachers and students - succès oblige.

The fundamental principle underlying the whole Course - theory and practice running in parallel lines throughout - remains unaltered. The order of the Lessons, too, and the colloquial character of the Exercises, having now stood successfully the severe test of twelve years' practical work in hundreds of classrooms, have been left untouched.

In those few points of detail, however, where the subject-matter clearly seemed to call for more careful and lucid exposition, the pruning hook has been applied with unsparing hand.

The Appendices have been considerably enlarged - not because it is deemed expedient to burden the pupil's memory with long lists of unusual words (many of which will not be wanted in a lifetime) - but in order to meet the wants of students who have to stand the ordeal of captious Examinations.' So long as a candidate's efficiency will be gauged by the sheer memory work of cut^and-dried strings of words and phrases, rather than by a clear understanding of fundamental principles, the Compiler has no alternative but to submit under protest to the stern economic law of "supply and demand."
