Inhaltsangabe

This reference grammar provides a comprehensive description of the structure of the Indonesian language written in a clear, non-technical manner. It can readily be used by teachers and senior students who have no linguistic background. It aims to be a linguistically rigorous and consistent description but as free as possible of linguistic jargon.

* To aid clarity and usefulness, all word groups and structures discussed are illustrated by natural examples

* Each section is designed to be informative if read alone,thus providing the reader with useful information on a particular small aspect of the language

* Extensive cross-referencing and a comprehensive index enable readers to locate desired topics without unnecessary searching

* All the major structures of Indonesian, from words to complex sentences, are described in detail; the information on many aspects of the grammar is not available to teachers and learners of the language in any other works

* Each level of the language is dealt with in a separate chapter, from words through phrases and clauses to sentences

* The common grammatical terms used are all clearly defined in an extensive glossary

By providing detailed information in a format meaningful to both teachers and students, Indonesian Reference Grammar fills a serious gap in the available resources.
