parallels between English and French provided where relevant
‘Key points’ boxes and tables that summarise grammar concepts
real-life language examples in French, with English translations
a variety of exercises to reinforce learning

An introductory chapter describes the lexical and grammatical differences between French and English and a glossary of grammatical terms in French and English, useful verb tables, and an exercise key are also provided, making this an ideal resource for both independent and class-based learners. This third edition offers additional activities throughout, describes the much-debated practice of inclusive language in French, and includes a brief history of the influence of French words on English vocabulary.
