    • The book "Grammatical Structures in English: Meaning in Context" introduces students to the syntactic structure of the English language from a functional and communicative perspective. It focuses on the differences between written and spoken language, formal and informal expression, and personal and impersonal communication. Key topics include theories of cohesion, speech acts, and the functional perspective of sentences. All phenomena are practiced using authentic texts. The book also provides an analysis of sentence structures in context and exercises for practicing more complex grammatical structures, along with a terminological glossary and a bilingual dictionary of essential linguistic terms.
