Cambridge University Press Reading Latin Grammar and Exercises
Book SynopsisReading Latin, first published in 1986, is a bestselling Latin course designed to help mature beginners read classical Latin fluently and intelligently. It does this in three ways: it encourages the reading of continuous texts from the start; it offers generous help with translation at every stage; and it integrates the learning of classical Latin with an appreciation of the influence of the Latin language upon English and European culture from antiquity to the present. The Text and Vocabulary, richly illustrated, consists at the start of carefully graded adaptations from original classical Latin texts. The adaptations are gradually phased out until unadulterated prose and verse can be read. The accompanying Grammar and Exercises volume completes the course by supplying all the grammatical help needed, and the second edition has been fully revised and updated. It has also been extensively redesigned to make it clearer and easier to navigate.Table of ContentsPreface; Notes to grammar and exercises; Pronunciation; Glossary of English–Latin grammar; Grammar and exercises for Parts I-VI; A-G verbs; H-I nouns, pronominal nouns/adjectives; J-K adjectives, adverbs and prepositions; L-V constructions; W word-order; Appendix: the Latin language; Total Latin-English learning vocabulary; Total English-Latin vocabulary for exercises; Index of grammar.

Michael O'Mara Books Ltd The 25 Rules of Grammar: The Essential Guide to
Book Synopsis Everything you need to know about the 25 essential rules of English grammar.English grammar is often said to be over-complicated and difficult to get to grips with but the truth is that, while there are certain rules that should be obeyed, the language evolves and develops over time – and quite rightly so. In this useful book, Joseph Piercy outlines the 25 rules that should be adhered to in written and spoken English, defining the rules themselves and then decoding them for the layman so that he or she understands each rule and how it has been used and developed over time. Here the author highlights the most common misuses – or plain errors – in the language, such as apostrophes, 'who' and 'whom', and avoiding split infinitives and double negatives, while also setting the reader on to the right path to speaking and writing in good, plain English.
