Chinese spoken grammar

Author: Zhao Yuanren, translated by Lü Shuxiang
Publisher:
Publish Date: 1979-12-01
Features: My AGrammarofSpokenChinese (Chinese name The Grammar of Chinese Spoken Language) was originally written for foreigners to study Chinese. If it were to be translated for Chinese use, there would certainly need to be many additions and deletions. Now, it so happens that when the Commercial Press wanted to publish this book, the linguistics expert Mr. Lü Shuxiang was very enthusiastic about it. He accurately translated what should be said to Chinese people and deleted what was unnecessary for them, along with the examples. This is truly a "perfect fit, dare not ask for you!" Mr. Lü wrote to me asking for my consent, and I was not only happy to agree but also deeply grateful.
