A New Reference Grammar of Modern Spanish is internationally known as the standard English-language reference grammar for the Spanish language. This bestselling resource has provided teachers and language learners with a comprehensive, accessible, and jargon-free guide to the forms and structures of Spanish as it is currently spoken and written in Spain and in across Latin America.

Each grammar concept is introduced by a thorough explanation, including helpful information on the level of usage (formal, familiar, colloquial, and popular) and regional use. Examples from contemporary sources--such as the Internet, magazines, and newspapers--illustrate each point and clarify the nuances of current usage.

Newly updated throughout, this revised edition includes:

• The latest findings on Spanish usage from the Royal Spanish Academy--not found in other grammars
• Fresh example sentences featuring the differences between Spanish and Latin American Spanish
• A new page layout, with more tables and summary sections, to make grammar explanations even more accessible
• A glossary of grammatical terms
