The practical grammar of the English language is aimed at students of English, secondary school students, and anyone who wants to acquire a thorough knowledge of the English language. It serves both as a learning grammar and as a clear reference work. The grammar presents the linguistic structures and rules of modern English in their entirety, including pronunciation, spelling, word formation, and the differences between British and American English. Additionally, it features a detailed treatment of text composition in English. The focus is on language use, illustrated by a very large number of example sentences. The example sentences, phrases, and expressions are predominantly chosen to be applicable in everyday communication.
