Slovak: An Essential Grammar is a pioneering grammar which sets out all the main linguistic structures and features of the Slovak language, with an emphasis on current usage and authentic examples.

The grammatical system is clearly explained in accessible terms that strike a balance between the needs of language novices and those of more experienced linguists and language learners. Included within this comprehensive volume is a historical introduction briefly presenting the development of Slovak and its special relationship to Czech; a phonology section paying special attention to 'rhythmic shortening', a unique feature of Slovak that affects pronunciation, spelling and morphology; and chapters covering all parts of speech, sentence structure, and word formation. Throughout the book, attention is given to the key differences in the way the English and Slovak languages structure and convey information, as well as focussing on those grammar and vocabulary aspects that foreign learners, and in particular English speakers, are likely to find most challenging. The detailed index and list of contents make it easy for users to find their way around the grammar and locate the aspects that most interest them.
