商品簡介
The authors (School of Modern Languages and Cultures, U. of Glasgow, UK) present a textbook on Russian grammar that is aimed primarily at English-speaking students in the first two years of a university course on the Russian language. The first part of the text deals with the traditional topics of the structure of the language, the grammatical behavior of the different parts of speech, and issues of particular import to Russian grammar, such as the use of cases and aspects of verb and grammatical agreement. The second section of the text is concerned with the ways in which language is used in particular contexts and situations, including functions such as establishing identity; establishing contact; being, becoming, and possession; negation; expressing attitudes; asking questions; obligation, instructions, requests, advice, and permission; times, dates, and quantities; focus and emphasis; establishing contexts and connections; coming and going; and communication strategies.
