Intermediate Russian Grammar by Stephen Le Fleming

Intermediate Russian Grammar by Stephen Le Fleming

This is a practical, learner's grammar which devotes special attention to those areas which experience has shown prove difficult for students. It starts with a lucid explanation of grammatical terms, contains a comprehensive reference section of the declension and conjugation systems, and provides explanatory chapters on all the grammatical categories that will be encountered by students. Examples are taken from a range of sources from popular sayings, classical literature and the contemporary press and the book ends with a section on words and phrases which cause problems in translation. There are exercises and many with keys and a thorough index and the book could be used as a course-book for grammar classes. This book fills a gap in the market for intermediate level grammar.

"..Intermediate Russian Grammar is an excellent book which will be of use to very many students and lecturers...The topics are explained succinctly and the mumerous, well-labelled subsections make it easy to find one's way around the different components." Modern Language Review
