Reviews
" Advanced English Grammar bridges the gap between grammar textbooks whose main focus is on language learning and more advanced grammars that can be too intimidating and ambitious for undergraduate students ... Overall, this is a very solid linguistically informed grammar of English, and in the future, I will refer my students to it." - LINGUIST List " Advanced English Grammar is the fruit of labour of two experienced teachers of English language ... This is a very welcome book that fills a gap between traditional grammar approach and pure linguistics analysis, and is written in a style that steers clear of the intimidating prose of linguistic analysis and the prescriptive nature of traditional grammar." -- Language and Language Teaching (of the first edition) "Within the crowded market of pedagogical grammars of English, this book is unique in its aims and coverage. The authors have succeeded in presenting English grammar from a linguistic approach effortlessly combining scientific rigour and pedagogical clarity.

Synopsis
With more than 50 years of teaching experience between them, Ilse Depraetere and Chad Langford present a grammar pitched precisely at advanced learners of English who need to understand how the English language really works without getting lost in the complex specifics. Now fully updated and revised throughout, the second edition of this book pulls from linguistic theory all the relevant notions that will enable the language student to fully grasp English grammar. After introducing form and function, the authors cover verbs, nouns, aspect and tense, modality and discourse. Readers are led through the underlying principles of language use, with the book presupposing only a basic grasp of linguistic terminology and focusing on the critical issues. Full of challenging exercises and supported by a companion website featuring an extensive answer key, a glossary and further exercises for study, this is the reference grammar of choice for both native and non-native English speakers.
