El español de los Estados Unidos
by Anna María Escobar Kim PotowskiHow long has Spanish been spoken in the US and how many people speak it today? Is Spanish being passed down through generations?

Linguistic concepts are clearly defined, and more complex concepts include detailed examples and exercises. Each chapter contains exercises which help readers to understand and reflect on new material. Chapter exercises direct readers to online resources so they can experience authentic examples.

Essays on German Literature: In Honour of G. Joyce Hallamore
by Michael S. Batts Marketa Goetz StankiewiczThe present Festschrift serves a dual purpose: firstly, to honour Professor Joyce Hallamore for her contribution to German studies in Canada, particularly at the University of British Columbia; secondly, to document the flourishing state of German studies in this country. Former and present students of Professor Hallamore were asked to contribute essays from their varied fields of interest which she has stimulated and fostered; furthermore, colleagues across Canada were invited to contribute the results of their research: the broad theme of this second group of essays is the complex relationship between nineteenth and twentieth century literature which has been the centre of Professor Hallamore's own scholarly work.<P><P> This volume commemorates Professor Hallamore's forty years of scholarship and teaching--the time given by her to the University of British Columbia, not only to the formation and growth of the Department of German (which she has headed for some twenty years) but to the expansion of the University as a whole. It demonstrates at the same time through breadth and variety the coming of age of German studies in Canada, which Professor Hallamore has fostered.<P>Although the essays in this volume vary in approach, the result shows a remarkable harmony of outlook, which gives evidence of the authors' conscious effort to reconsider critically traditional categories and attitudes in literary criticism. This harmony of outlook--found in the whole range of papers from the youngest to the most mature scholar--reflects the spirit and work of the person whom the volume is honouring.

Essential French Grammar
by Seymour ResnickThis is the first French grammar designed specifically for adults with limited learning time who wish to acquire a knowledge of simple, everyday spoken French, and who have no need of all the archaic, highly literary, and seldom used forms that must be covered in a conventional grammar. It is not a simplified study, but a selective grammar that points out many time-saving short cuts.Constantly drawing comparisons with English construction, it covers all of the important points in French grammar (verb forms and tenses, parts of speech, negative sentences, possessives, partitive construction, etc.) fully and logically, and with refreshing clarity. It was created for those who prefer the phrase approach, and all grammatical points are illustrated with phrases and sentences that you can incorporate directly into your working vocabulary. Many of the discussions include a list of common expressions that use the rule under study.In addition to the grammar text itself, there are several unusual features of great value to anyone who wants to build a French vocabulary: a section on common word-endings and their French equivalents, for example, and a 50-page lit of French-English cognates.This grammar does not assume any previous knowledge either of grammatical terms or of French grammar. English grammatical terms are explained in a separate section and all discussion begins with essentials and works up from there. Use it as an introduction to grammar, for independent class courses, with phrase courses, as a refresher, or for beginning self-study.
