Modern Mandarin Chinese Grammar: A Practical Guide, third edition, is an innovative reference guide to Mandarin Chinese, combining traditional and function-based grammar in a single volume. The Grammar is divided into two parts. Part A covers traditional grammar points such as phrase order, and the structure of noun phrases, and verb phrases. Part B is carefully organized around language functions and situations such as: - Asking questions - Communication strategies - Making comparisons - Giving orders and making requests - Expressing apologies, regrets, and sympathy The two parts of the Grammar are closely linked by extensive cross-references, providing a grammatical and functional perspective on many patterns. The Grammar is coordinated with the Workbook (978-1-032-36930-3), which provides grammar focused and situation focused exercises to facilitate practice and reinforce language use. All grammar points and functions are richly illustrated with examples presented in simplified and traditional characters and pinyin romanization, with a strong emphasis on contemporary usage. The third edition includes new sections on character structure, social media, speaker perspective, and more, as well as updated illustrative sentences, and an expanded index. Modern Mandarin Chinese Grammar is ideal for all learners of Mandarin Chinese, from beginner to intermediate and advanced students.
