    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    Basic Dutch: A Grammar and Workbook comprises an accessible reference grammar and related exercises in a single volume. This second edition contains new chapters on spelling, pronunciation, and indirect speech, as well as revised and additional exercises with lists of new vocabulary.



    This comprehensive book presents 31 individual grammar points in realistic contexts, taking a grammatical approach that allows students not already familiar with these structures to become accustomed to their use. Grammar points are followed by examples and exercises, allowing students to reinforce and consolidate their learning.



    Key features include:




    • a full answer key



    • grammar tables for easy reference



    • frequent comparative references to English grammar



    • appendices of pronunciation, pronouns, and strong verbs



    • a list of new vocabulary at the end of each chapter



    Suitable for class use or self-study, Basic Dutch is the ideal companion for students in their first year of study, providing the basic tools needed to communicate in a variety of situations and an introduction to Dutch culture.



    "A holistic approach to Dutch grammar for beginner students of Dutch, and more advanced students wanting to refresh their language skills. New, and very welcome, are the pronunciation guide and vocabulary lists per chapter. These features plus an answer key to the exercises make this new edition ideal for selfstudy."  


    Wijnie de Groot, Senior Lecturer in Dutch, Columbia University, USA
