Product description

Review

It's about time our students had a book like this one... this new grammar is distinguished by its lucid and contrastive presentation of the material. --The French Review

Students find it very useful. It helps them because of the simplicity of approach and the comparison with English. I recommend that book to many of my colleagues as it is a precious tool for learning French grammar and unique in its kind. Please continue publishing it. --Marie-Andree Rivet, Douglas College

Comments by teachers and students: First book any student of French should buy! Fantastic! Precise, Concise, Complete! Great tool! --Amazon.com

Nice book with some good examples. I bought it for my daughter taking French in college so I hope she will use it. I lived in Europe and have spoken fluent French for years -- but I learned a number of useful things from the book before I sent it off to my daughter.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for understanding how the rules compare to English.

This is the best French learning book I have tried. It uses the principles of English grammar to demonstrate a variety of rules for French grammar.
It was recommended by a retired French professor and I am not dissapointed!

5.0 out of 5 stars Essential for students of French
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 1 June 2021

I first came across a version of this book back in the late 90s when I was studying French at A-level, and I'm certain it helped me to transition from being 'good' at French to 'excellent' at French. I subsequently ended up doing a degree in languages.

The key to language learning is understanding how grammar works in your native tongue, which you can then apply to other languages. For many native English speakers, we know how to string a sentence together through instinct rather than analysis; this is where this book is invaluable. We instinctively know to say 'I give him the book' but know we can't say 'I give the book him'. Unless you're particularly good at grammar, you may struggle to explain that it's to do with the position of the indirect object, and that you'd need a preposition to make the second sentence work. If you're struggling to understand what I've just said, then you need this book!

Not only does this book fill in the gaps of your grammatical knowledge of English, it then shows you how it works in French.

All in all, je dirais que ce livre est essentiel pour les étudiants de la langue française ;-)

5.0 out of 5 stars Covers french grammar through english grammar, great study guide/reference book
Reviewed in the United States on 28 January 2023

Just what I was looking for a reference study book to cover basics to help me get back into French after many years. I took french when I was younger and have a somewhat functional understanding of it but its a maybe 5-8 year olds level. I wanted something to cover the basics in grammar to help jump start the foundation again but without 300 pages of tips and tricks and exercises. Something I could go through quickly and return to just on certain points as a refresher and to help me strengthen my foundation again as I try to improve my French. This fits the bill, take a look at my photos for a photo of the contents and 168 pages and the quality of the book. Hope this helps.
