5.0 out of 5 stars Oxford Russian Grammar and Verbs., 20 May 2003
By D. Jones "damijo" (Midlands, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I have other Grammar books that promise things like "made easy", "made simple", and...."for beginners", but this book delivers!, it says on the cover" clear and simple explanations" and that's exactly what it does.
Grammar in any language is always a pain, but this book has thousands of examples, covering every aspect of " Nom,Acc,Gen, Dat,Ins and Prep. The work is even defined into different typeface for different examples, making it easier to search for worked examples just by spotting the typeface relative to the required subject. In short, for learning Grammar quickly and painlessly, this book is a winner.

5.0 out of 5 stars All grammer books should be like this, 15 Feb 2005
I have studied a number of foreign languages, and this is certainly the best grammer that I have ever come across. I had a very high level of Russian many years ago, and I am trying to brush up on the language.

After experiencing a good deal of frustration while trying to go through my old grammer books, which contain an enormous amount of unnecessary and impractical commentary, I decided to give this one a try. I was at first somewhat skeptical, since I didn't think it would be possible to fully cover Russian, a very complicated language, in such an abbreviated format. But I was very pleasantly surprised to find that, not only are all of the essentials covered in a clear, concise manner, but all the exceptions to the rules (and there are quite a few in Russian) are covered as well.

This book may be somewhat disappointing to a very limited audience (e.g. students of linguistics), but it contains more than enough information for anyone who desires to speak Russian, even at a very high level, while dispensing with all of the fat that tend to bog down other grammers.

It's not surprising that this title comes from Oxford, which has also been publishing the finest English-Russian dictionary for decades. Bravo!

5.0 out of 5 stars Best russian grammar available, 12 Jan 2004
By A Customer
Although this grammar is concise, this should not be looked upon as a defect. It offers an extraordinarily clear presentation of all the mayor grammatical subjects russian has to offer. If you are starting to study russian or are looking for a managable grammar for reference purposes this is the book for you
