文档介绍：BASIC CANTONESE:
A GRAMMAR AND WORKBOOK
Basic Cantonese introduces the essentials of Cantonese grammar in a
straightforward and systematic way. Each of the 28 units deals with a
grammatical topic and provides associated exercises, designed to put
grammar into municative context. Special attention is paid to topics
which differ from English and European language structures.
Features include:
• clear, accessible format
• lively examples to illustrate each grammar point
• informative keys to all exercises
• glossary of grammatical terms
Basic Cantonese is ideal for students new to the language. Together with its
sister volume, Intermediate Cantonese, it forms a structured course of the
essentials of Cantonese grammar.
