Product Details
- Modern Brazilian Portuguese Grammar: A Practical Guide is an innovative reference guide to Brazilian Portuguese, combining traditional and function-based grammar in a single volume.The Grammar is divided into two parts. Part A covers traditional grammatical categories such as agreement, nouns, verbs and adjectives. Part B is carefully organized around language functions covering all major communication situations such as establishing identity, making contact and expressing likes, dislikes and preferences. With a strong emphasis on contemporary usage, all grammar points and functions are richly illustrated with examples. Building on the success of the second edition, this third edition provides new and extended notes for Spanish speakers, which focus on common difficulties faced by learners of Portuguese, as well as revised explanations of grammar and usage, which include the use of ‘tu’ in Portuguese.A combination of reference grammar and practical usage manual, complemented by a Companion Website with audiovisual material and a separate Workbook designed to accompany the Grammar, this textbook is the ideal source for learners of Brazilian Portuguese at all levels, from beginner to advanced.

Instruction Editorial Review
The "Modern Brazilian Portuguese Grammar" (3rd Edition) has garnered a strong reputation among learners of the language, distinguishing itself as an invaluable resource for mastering Brazilian Portuguese. Reviewers frequently highlight its comprehensive approach, stating that it covers all aspects of the language effectively, making it a prime choice for both novice and seasoned learners alike. Many feel it is the best grammar book available, particularly praising its extensive detail and thorough navigation options. Several users have noted that while the book is a treasure trove of grammatical knowledge, it is advisable to pair the book with guidance from a tutor. This is due to the distinctions between conversational and written Portuguese, which can pose challenges for self-learners. The inclusion of practical examples further enriches the learning experience, helping users connect grammar concepts with real-world usage. Despite its strengths, the text is not without its shortcomings. Some readers pointed out typographical errors, especially within the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) pronunciations, although these did not significantly detract from the overall utility of the book. Other reviewers observed that the grammar terminology might be inaccessible to those without an advanced background in linguistics, making the learning curve steeper for some. Overall, the "Modern Brazilian Portuguese Grammar" offers a robust tool for understanding and applying Brazilian Portuguese grammar, recommended for its thoroughness and practicality, albeit with caution for those unfamiliar with grammatical jargon. **
