An in-depth grammar with online audio, ideal for students aged 15+, that presents grammar structures in a clear and highly visual way. The book makes the most of traditional exercises, cultural texts, audio tracks and more playful games and class activities to enhance and enrich the learning process. The use of tables, diagrams, and contextualized examples throughout make the concepts and rules easy to understand, whether learning in class groups or independently. (Near beginners to Upper intermediate levels, CEFR A2-B2).

The book consists of an introductory unit, which recaps basic A1 level grammar, and 20 complete units, each focussed on a fundamental element of a sentence: the verb. Starting from the verb, adjectives, nouns, adverbs and all the aspects of grammar are then examined, always focussing on communicative skills. Each unit begins with an illustrated comic (with audio accompaniment) that immediately presents and contextualizes the topics in an engaging way. Learn to communicate correctly straight away!

Technical language is reduced to a minimum, in order to make the explanations of the rules clear and simple to understand. The book provides over 300 exercises in order to practise the application of the rule, summarise and revise the units in communicative contexts. The grammatical rules are presented through texts about Italian current affairs, or traditions, in order to unify language and civilization.

Answers to the exercises and the audio transcripts are provided at the end of the book to aid independent study. A final section of grammar tables offers a useful summary of the topics for quick reference.

Digital resources:

Online MP3 audio tracks (downloadable from the publisher's website and using the ELI-LINK App for smartphones and tablets). The audio tracks include verb conjugations and article declensions, nouns and adjectives, written texts, and a range of comprehension and revision exercises.
