This edition is divided into three parts. Part One: A guide to the use of this book - looks at the way English grammar varies in different types of English, for example 'formal' and 'informal', 'spoken' and 'written'. Part Two: Grammar in use - the central and largest part of the book, presents grammar through the eyes of the communicator and focuses on the uses of grammar rather than on grammatical structure. Part Three: A-Z in English grammar - provides a useful and alphabetically arranged guide to English grammar. This new edition includes more real examples taken from corpus data. Increased emphasis is given to grammar in spoken language, providing a better balance between written and spoken English. Explanations and examples have been made simpler in order to make the grammar more accessible to students. \u003cb\u003eGEOFFREY LEECH \u003c\/b\u003eis Emeritus Professor in the Department of Linguistics and Modern English Language at Lancaster University, UK, and \u003cb\u003eJAN SVARTVIK\u003c\/b\u003e is Emeritus Professor of English at Lund University, Sweden. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eGeoffrey Leech \u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eis Professor in the Department of Linguistics and Modern English Language at Lancaster University. \u003cstrong\u003eJan Svartvik \u003c\/strong\u003eis Professor of English at Lund University, Sweden.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 456\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.96 x 9.17 x 6.46 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 06, 2003\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51751377764640,"sku":"9780582506336","price":115.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/742267cd675ae6e2ee214a68e51971b3.webp?v=1779972025","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/a-communicative-grammar-of-english-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
