On its own, or in conjunction with a variety of free online resources—grammar and vocabulary exercises, pronunciation drills, and more—this accurate and well-organized book is the ideal reference for students of Spanish at any level.

Written for intermediate students taking Spanish on a high school or college level, this book can be used in the classroom as a main text or as a textbook supplement. It covers every aspect of Spanish grammar and correct usage, beginning with verbs and analyzing verb tenses, the passive voice, reflexive verbs, verb usage in the subjunctive mood, imperative command verb forms, and uses of verb infinitives. The book's subsequent sections cover nouns, modifiers, and the other parts of speech, with discussion of various interrogative forms, words that express negation, feminine forms, demonstratives and possessives, pronouns, diminutive and augmentative word formations, and more. Contemporary idioms are interspersed throughout the text, and the book's many exercises give students plenty of solid practice. Cartoon illustrations throughout the book help to demonstrate points of Spanish grammar.

Originally published in 1927, this book was written to provide students with some experience of Spanish with a guide to elements of syntax and composition. A selection of Spanish prose writing translated into English is also included. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in Spanish, linguistics and the history of education.
