Hammer's German Grammar and Usage (4th ed)

"Hammer's German Grammar and Usage" has long occupied a pre-eminent position in the field of German studies.

Unrestricted by the formal written language, it is firmly based on current usage rather than prescription, covering all the main grammatical phenomena of German and embracing regional variations and registers of the modern standard language.

The combination of reference grammar and manual of current usage has proved invaluable for students and teachers of German at intermediate and advanced level.

This new edition continues to build on the book's reputation for accessibility and comprehensiveness.

The fourth edition has been revised in accordance to the new spelling and punctuation reform and all examples have been updated.

With special attention to student needs, the tables summarising basic points have been expanded and the book's layout modified to make it even more accessible.

A new glossary of grammatical terms has been added and the three separate indexes have been combined into one.
