Review
"The sixth edition of A New Reference Grammar of Modern Spanish equips the multilingual 21st-century learner with the essential tools to master the Spanish language. This new edition amplifies its contrastive approach by incorporating new references to other languages (French, Italian, Portuguese, German...) as well as a wealth of new language samples from the Spanish-speaking world. It also incorporates important references to areas of special difficulty for the anglophone speaker, providing a clear, accessible and comprehensive account of Spanish grammar to the independent learner and maintaining its role as an indispensable companion to language professionals and students of Spanish at all levels." - Javier Muñoz-Basols, University of Oxford, UK

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Spanish Language & Grammar Reference
This text provides a comprehensive and well organized and indexed grammar to answer all of my questions and begin to improve my use of grammar.Recently, I have been applying myself to improve my Spanish -- a very common spoken language in my community. I took a class in Mexico City, tested at CEFR B2. We had a great workbook in the class that gave minimal background and grammar to complete the worksheet exercises. I had been depending on my university level Spanish textbook for grammar, but that was not really complete. This fills an important gap and should improve my learning.
5.0 out of 5 stars Great asset!
This is a great asset to learning Spanish!
5.0 out of 5 stars Exhaustive and excellent!
By far the best grammar reference I have had for the Spanish language. I will read this again and again.
5.0 out of 5 stars BEST Advanced Spanish Grammar Reference Ever!
As the previous reviewer stated, yes, this does NOT include the companion grammar workbook (which can be found here: https://www.Bolo.com/gp/product/113833927X/ref=ox_sc_act_title_3?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1)So be warned, this listing is ONLY for the reference text. However, as someone who is preparing for the US Federal Interpreter's written exam, I have been searching high and low for a good advanced grammar reference text. After all, the exam serves to weed out even the best Spanish speakers (native and non) who cannot differentiate between formal grammar and the common errors that have proliferated in even the most educated groups of people in Latin America and Spain.Like the book says, its target audience is someone who is a European Level B2-C2 advanced speaker/student of Spanish. In the US system, I would say this is targeted at someone who has completed either a Bachelor's Degree or is doing/completing a Masters in Spanish. You're someone who has all of the grammar basics down, can read high register Spanish with relative ease, and are fluent or close to fluent in spoken Spanish. Now, you're just looking to polish your Spanish grammatical skills. If you're a beginner, this is a text you will probably want to skip over until you're more advanced in your studies. But once you're in your advanced college classes or preparing to apply for graduate school, definitely add it to your arsenal!I am incredibly impressed with how well chosen and organized this book is. The explanations are so clear and will help native speakers understand why something is correct beyond "because it just sounds right that way." The examples also give you a great visualization of the concepts in practice. I also greatly appreciate the regional explanations for why some grammatical forms are in practice in some countries and not in others. It also gives greater understanding and context for native speakers as to why maybe they've been hearing or saying something incorrectly their entire lives.Whether you're a Spanish grammar nerd or need this text to understand the grammatical rules of your native language, this is well worth the investment!
5.0 out of 5 stars Great reference book
If you are studying Spanish and are looking for a well written reference for Spanish grammar, look no further, this is your book.
4.0 out of 5 stars Great book
Definitely geared towards a college level the way it is laid out but a novice speaker can still learn a lot. A person can skip around and not work in a chronological order. Great benefit
5.0 out of 5 stars When You're Serious About Learning Spanish
After you have had some experience with learning Spanish, and want to improve your level of understanding of the structure of the language, this is the book for you. It is a reference book, so it does not have lessons as such, but it will answer the questions that come up in your mind as you're learning. Questions like why is that sentence done that way or why did they use that verb tense there often pop into my head.
5.0 out of 5 stars Binding quality
I can only rate the binding as I just received it. It's well bound, nice size, print easy to read, paper is 20 lb. hot press good quality.
