BASIC ITALIAN:
           A GRAMMAR AND WORKBOOK
           Basic Italian: A Grammar and Workbook comprises an accessible
           reference grammar and related exercises in a single volume.
           This workbook presents 23 individual grammar points in lively and
           realistic contexts. Each unit consists of jargon-free explanations and
           comparisons with English, targeting the more common difficulties experi-
           enced by learners of Italian. Grammar points are followed by examples
           and exercises selected to make use of contemporary Italian.
           Basic Italian introduces Italian culture and people through the medium of
           the language used today, providing readers with the basic tools to
           express themselves in a wide variety of situations.
           Features include:
           •   examples in both Italian and English
           •   grammar tables for easy reference
           •   full exercise answer key
           •   glossary of grammatical terms
           Basic Italian is the ideal reference and practice book for beginners and
           also for students with some knowledge of the language.
