The book addresses learners’ practical needs by combining a detailed
description of the grammatical structures of German with a ‘functional’ approach to
language. By functions we mean the specific uses to which we can put language in
order to communicate effectively in particular situations: e.g. apologizing, accepting
or declining an invitation, expressing regret, voicing an opinion or casting doubt on
something.
The book is intended for all those who have a basic knowledge of German, including
undergraduates taking German as a major or minor part of their studies, as well as
intermediate and advanced students in both schools and adult education. It will also
prove an invaluable resource for teachers seeking back-up to syllabuses organized
around functions, or designers of German language courses and syllabuses in all
sectors of education.
