    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.

    Short description:


    A Comprehensive Japanese Grammar will consist of traditional description of the structures of the Japanese language, as befits a reference grammar, but will also include discussion from a generative linguistics perspective of relevant constructions (e.g., free word order, a phenomenon studied widely in the generative literature). Existing grammars focus exclusively on a traditional, pre–generative way of viewing language. A Comprehensive Japanese Grammar will thus provide students and teachers of Japanese as well as researchers with additional useful information about the language in an updated framework. The comprehensive coverage and authoritative demonstration – including a well–balanced mix of both examples and explanation – intended in the proposed work will be a great improvement on existing competition both in methodology and in presentation.
