English

Part of Longman's Simplified series, Grammar Simplified offers a concise and affordable introduction to Standard English for students of the 21st Century.

Grammar Simplified is composed of 31 lessons. The lessons are organized by skill level, each one building on the previously taught lesson. Each lesson presents an objective, an explanation with examples, and at least two practice exercises with answers. The succinct nature of the text enables rapid learning for the student. It also serves as an excellent resource throughout the college career.

• Concise and inexpensive, Grammar Simplified is a quick handy reference for grammar and usage rules that students can afford in addition to other textbooks assigned.

• Its easily portable and 3-hole punched format encourages students to integrate the text with their course notebooks.

• Provides coverage of essential grammar and usage for the introductory student.

• Scaffolded lessons build on one another in skill level.

• Two practice exercises, with answers, included with each lesson.
