Synopsis

Appropriate for low beginning level ESL courses, the first volume in the theme-based Grammar Links series offers a communicative approach with a traditional focus on form. The text offers clear, accurate, and comprehensive grammar reference material, useful to students throughout life; a strong emphasis on the pragmatics of formal versus informal language; and ample contexualized, four-skills practice.

  • Grammar Briefings cover the structure of the English language as well as functions and meanings.
  • Talking the Talk boxes address pragmatic concerns about grammatical choices in written and spoken English, such as levels of formality, slang, and metaphorical usage.
  • Grammar Hotspot boxes alert students to predictable grammar problems and explain how to avoid them.
