Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Italian Grammar
Tms volume is the result of an attempt to put into convenient form and the smallest possible compass all the grammar that the ordinary student of Italian will need. Short as the book is, it con tains some paragraphs which beginners will probably skip: the longer lists of words and endings, and a great part of the chapters on suffixes and irregular verbs will be useful mainly for reference. The vocabularies cover the twenty-one translation exercises, but not the examples nor the Exercise in Pronunciation they are not intended to include words explained in the notes, nor proper names that are exactly the same in Italian and in English.
I have endeavored to make the book represent the Italian lan guage as it is spoken and written at the present day; the exercises are taken chie?y from reading-books lately prepared for Tuscan schools. Still, I have tried to give also as many obsolete forms as students of the Italian classics will require.
