## Description

Essential Chinese Grammar is a systematic overview of Chinese grammar, oriented toward self-study, English-speaking students. Through explanations of common mistakes learners make, useful example sentences and exercises with an answer key, this book provides a detailed introduction to the unique grammar structures of the Chinese language. Ideal for any student who is interested in taking their skills to the next level, this book makes the difficult task of perfecting grammar efficient, interesting and rewarding. Essential Chinese Grammar is a perfect tool to help you form correct and natural-sounding sentences, and determine how to best use the grammar you need for reading or writing Chinese. Each example and exercise is written in both pinyin and Simplified Chinese Characters to accommodate learners with varying levels of character literacy, including those who have learned only to speak but not read.

Review: a perfect study guide for students at/above intermediate level - As a professor of Chinese language with 25 years of teaching experience in leading universities in the U.S. as well as China, I’m delighted to see this comprehensive and unique new addition to the repertoire of Chinese grammar books currently available. This book is a perfect study guide for students whose Chinese ability is at the intermediate level and above. All essential Chinese grammar points are systematically explained, together with potential pitfalls and preventive strategies. Ample example sentences make grammar points clear, and well-designed exercises help learners retain grammatical knowledge and enhance usage. Even for students at the beginning level, the grammatical explanations in English are helpful, but they may need to wait until they advance to a higher level before they can benefit from the example sentences. Finally, for Chinese language instructors, this book serves as a practical and valuable reference for how to teach Chinese grammar to English-speaking students. The two authors are obviously seasoned professionals in the field of Chinese language education, demonstrating not only linguistic expertise, but also cultural and political awareness. As someone who has lived and worked in the U.S. and China, I find the content up-to-date, culturally sophisticated, and not biased in any sense. Highly recommend this great grammar book to students and instructors of Chinese language!
Review: Needed asset for students, whether studying alone or with a teachder, - This book contains much needed information about Mandarin that should be useful to any serious student of the language. The minute I saw the title, read the description and saw that it was published by Tuttle and the author's names, I knew I had to have it. It is now a cherished possession in my Chinese language collection. Thank you, desertcart for helping to make it availaabe.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My go-to book for Chinese grammar!
*by E***M on July 5, 2021*

As a Chinese language instructor at a college in the U.S., I've purchased more than enough grammar books in the past decade, and I often consult them when design my lesson plans and this is one of the grammar books that I use almost on a daily basis. This is an extremely practical book that covers grammar and usage from basic to advanced and I am very grateful for the care the authors took in providing examples that would be accessible for less-than-advanced students. Small, concise and practical. This book is a great supplement to a normal textbook, and for anyone who wants to study Chinese, this is one of the books you will be glad to buy because you will reference it time and again.
