Fundamentals of English Grammar is a developmental skills text for mid-level students of English as a second or foreign language. It focuses on key structures and provides ample opportunities for practice through extensive and varied exercises. While focusing on grammar, it promotes the development of all language skills. The second edition of Fundamentals of English Grammar includes all grammar areas that are important at the intermediate level. These include personal pronouns; forms of other; connecting ideas with coordinating and subordinating conjunctions, and comparisons; the use of must to make logical conclusions; expressing immediate future with be, about to; nonspecific vs. specific pronouns (e.g., May I have one vs. May I have it); uncompleted infinitives; and using a gerund after a preposition

Fundamentals of English Grammar is a developmental skills text for lower-intermediate and intermediate students of English as a second or foreign language. It combines clear and understandable grammar information with a variety of exercises and activities.
Fundamentals of English Grammar is the second in a series of three texts: Basic English Grammar (red cover), Fundamentals of English Grammar (black cover), and Understanding and Using English Grammar (blue cover).
The principal aims of all three texts in this series arc to present clear, cogent information about English grammar and usage, to provide extensive and varied practice that encourages growth in all areas of language use, and to be interesting, useful, and fun for student and teacher alike. The approach is eclectic, with the texts seeking to balance form-focused language-learning activities with abundant opportunities for engaged and purposeful communicative interaction.
The new editions of the texts in the Azar Grammar Series include these changes:
• The communicative aspects are more fully developed and explicit in the third editions. This edition of Fundamentals of English Grammar includes a greatly increased number of "real communication" opportunities for the teacher to exploit. The text often uses the students' own life experiences as context and regularly introduces topics of interest to stimulate die free expression of ideas in structured as well as open discussions.
The Azar Grammar Series texts support the view of many experienced teachers that grammar-based and communicative approaches are not mutually exclusive, but rather mutually supportive, and can advantageously co-exist in the same language program, even in the same class, even in the same lesson.
• Similarly, the interactive aspects of the texts receive greater emphasis in the third editions. Many of the exercises formerly designated ORAL or oral (BOOKS closed) are now reformatted to be more clearly available for pair work or group work, in addition to still being viable as class work led by a teacher. This edition of Fundamentals of English Grammar encourages interactivity but leaves it open for the users to decide what degree of interactivity best suits their needs.
• There is now an even wider variety of exercise types. This edition has a much larger number of free-response exercises and open-ended communicative tasks, while still providing ample controlled-response exercises to aid initial understanding of the form, meaning, and usage of the target structures. It also includes more writing topics, more speaking activities, new error-analysis exercises in every chapter, and additional extended-context exercises. Classroom teaching materials formerly found in the Workbook are now included in this student text, with the Workbook devoted solely to self-study exercises. The Workbook has a variety of practice approaches for independent study.
• A specific change in this edition of Fundamentals of English Grammar is the two Appendices, one with phrasal verbs and one with preposition combinations. Rather than asking students to study a whole chapter of these phrases at one time, the text uses appendices to present them in smaller groupings for teachers to intersperse throughout the teaching term. Another specific change is the omission of conditional sentences, which are presented in Understanding and Using English Grammar.
• The accompanying Teacher's Guide is written for both experienced and inexperienced teachers. It contains amplified grammar notes the teacher might want to present to the class or will find useful as background information. It outlines various ways of approaching the materials in the classroom and frequently suggests fresh teaching ideas for individual exercises beyond the directions in the text. It seeks to share with the teacher an understanding of the rationale behind the text's content and approaches. Its principal purpose is to make the busy teacher's job easier.
