German Grammar You Really Need To Know

Presupposing a rudimentary knowledge of German, this primer breaks the language down into 21 functional, everyday situations, such as giving instructions or talking about the recent past, and explains how to construct sentences in a natural and appropriate way. These practical lessons are supported by contextual examples, comprehension tests and a reference section that deals with grammatical structures, such as the imperative or the perfect tense, in a more traditional fashion.
