A French Grammar for Schools and Colleges (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from A French Grammar for Schools and CollegesHaving regard to the importance of securing accurate pronunciation from the very outset, care has been taken to facilitate the work of the teacher in this respect by giving a phonetic transcription of all vocabularies and paradigms, under the conviction that in no other way can distinctions in sounds be intelligibly explained. In order, however, not to confuse the beginner with too minute distinctions, half long vowels have not been indicated, and the same rule has been observed, for the most part, with regard to such stressed vowels as are optionally long or short.The elementary exercises are based almost exclusively upon connected pieces of French, dealing with a variety of topics relating to every-day life, and make provision for both oral and written practice. They have been provided in abundance so as to admit of selection and variety, and to afford ample material for review. In both the elemen tary and advanced exercises, regard has been had to the requirements of such teachers as feel the necessity for a large amount of work of this kind in order to ensure ade quate and practical knowledge on the part of the pupil.Part I. Consists of a series of lessons on the elements of grammar as an essential preparation for easy reading, while Part II. Furnishes a systematic grammar of modern French for later study and general reference. To this part a se ries of exercises has been added dealing with the various topics treated in the text. It was thought best to group these exercises together at the end, in order not to impair the usefulness of the Grammar as a book of reference by inserting the exercises immediately after the paragraphs to which they refer. Each exercise, however, is furnished with section references which will enable the pupil to turn readily to the theory upon which the exercises are based.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
