Summary:

"The many differences between formal and informal, written and spoken
French are one of the most striking features of the language, and can
cause problems even for its native speakers. Colloquial French
Grammar provides a practical, non-technical survey of those aspects
of morphology and syntax where standard and non-standard French
differ." "Taking the key areas of grammar in turn, Rodney Ball
describes the forms used in everyday French and indicates their level
of colloquialness. A basic knowledge of the standard language is
assumed, but less elementary points are reviewed and explanations are
given of all the grammatical terms employed. Authentic conversational
material is used in the examples, and there are a large number of
exercises to aid and stimulate the reader. Designed specifically for
the language-learner and for others who require a description of
informal French structures, Colloquial French Grammar is the first
systematic overview of its kind for non-native speakers."--BOOK
