Modern French Grammar

This book is designed to provide the essential elements of French grammar, for
students in the final year of school and in the first and later years of higher
education. Advanced learners will find much that is useful for extending their
knowledge of French, and for revision. The book is organized in two major
sections: a reference section containing the structures of grammar and a section
containing functional grammar. Each section includes cross-references to the
other.
The reference grammar, which is as comprehensive as possible, has been
structured around the noun phrase?dealing with all the elements related to the
noun: articles, pronouns, adjectives and numbers?and the verb phrase?dealing
with all the elements related to the verb: tenses, mood, participles and adverbs.
The functional grammar is composed of three parts, each demonstrating how
to do things with language in order to communicate. The three principal
functions identified are exposition, attitude and argumentation. Each of these is
divided into smaller function areas related to the principal function.
