Grammar Links 3: A Theme-Based Course for Reference and Practice

This theme-based Grammar Links series offers clear, accurate, and comprehensive grammar reference material, useful to students throughout life; a strong emphasis on the pragmatics of formal and informal language, and ample contextualized, four-skills practice. The thematic materials of each unit gradually become more sophisticated and academically oriented throughout the series.

• 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.
