Produktbeschreibung

Understanding Indonesian Grammar is a reference and workbook designed primarily for intermediate and advanced students in senior years of high school and at university. It provides a clear, non-technical description of the important structures in the language, together with practical exercises. It can be used with any Indonesian language course.

* Units are largely self-contained, enabling teachers to select topics in any order, depending on the structure of their course and the needs of their students.

* The various aspects of each topic are discussed one at a time and tested in exercises so that the learner is guided step by step to an in-depth understanding of the topic.

* Contains descriptions of many frequently occurring affixes and structures which are not dealt with in existing course materials.

* Clear explanations and answers to all exercises enable learners to use the book without a teacher.

* Notes throughout the book provide additional information on unusual or irregular features of grammar.

* All grammatical terms used are defined in an extensive glossary.

The comprehensiveness and flexibility of Understanding Indonesian Grammar make it an indispensable resource for students and teachers of Indonesian.
