Intermediate Chinese

Intended for students who have some knowledge of the language, this text deals with grammar points and provides associated exercises. Features include: a clear, accessible format; many language examples; grammar explanations; drills and exercises; and a full key to exercises. All Chinese entries are presented in both "pinyin" romanization and Chinese characters, and are accompanied, in most cases, by English translations to facilitate self-tuition in both written and spoken Chinese. The text reviews the principal elements introduced in "Basic Chinese" and introduces more complicated structures. The two books seek to form a compendium of all the main features of Chinese syntax.
