Chinese: A Comprehensive Grammar is a complete reference guide to Chinese grammar. It presents a fresh and accessible description of the language, concentrating on the real patterns of use in modern Chinese. The Grammar is an essential reference source for the learner and user of Chinese, irrespective of level. It is ideal for use in schools, colleges, universities and adult classes of all types and will remain the standard reference work for years to come. The volume is organized to promote a thorough understanding of Chinese grammar. It offers a stimulating analysis of the complexities of the language, and provides full and clear explanations. Throughout, the emphasis is on Chinese as used by present-day native speakers. An extensive index and numbered paragraphs provide readers with easy access to the information they require.

The new edition features a revised and expanded chapter on prosody: 'Prosody and Syntax', as well as four completely new chapters:

- Morphology and Syntax (1), which looks at Chinese word formation

- Morphology and Syntax (2), which explores the interaction between words, expressions, and sentences

- Intralingual Transpositions, which reviews the possible conversions between possible sentential constructions

- Interlingual Conversions, which examines the differences between Chinese and English
