5.0 out of 5 stars   , 15 Sep 2007
By J. Evans (Dartmoor) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book has been my constant companion over the last couple of years. It has been a great help as I study Modern Greek at evening class. Apart from being a pretty comprehensive grammar primer for beginner / intermediate learners, what I really appreciate is the wealth of lucid examples it provides, many of which I have now memorised. Without it my understanding of Greek grammar would be impoverished and I can recommend it wholeheartedly.

5.0 out of 5 stars A fantastic buy, 18 Aug 2009
By Shauna Brown (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
What an amazingly useful book this is. My Greek tutor lent me this book to read one section. I couldn't put it down and had to buy my own copy. It is clearly written and is a treasure chest of information and examples. It gives explanations for all those annoying little idiosyncrasies that don't quite fit into all the usual patterns of grammar: suddenly the light goes on and all is clear. Think they call that an 'Ahhh' moment. Up until now I have continued to use my ancient, yellowed, falling-apart copy of "Modern Greek" by S A Sofroniou, which I love to bits - far more than it's more modern equivalents - but have never managed to find anything to take me that step further. Well this "Essential Grammars" book is it. You will not regret buying it. Might be a bit beyond the scope of those who are just setting out with Greek and haven't studied other languages/grammar before, though would still be the perfect complement to other 'teach yourself' books or for those studying with a teacher. A total Godsend - love it!!!

An excellent purchase - just what I wanted. Well laid out. Although there are certain areas that it covers rather sketchily, I recommend it to all serious students of Modern Greek.
