Straightforward explanations-in English-will clear up any and all ambiguities. Part II covers prepositions in all their glory, including their various uses and the subtle differences among certain prepositions. And, of course, there is extensive practice with the perennial troublemakers: por and para. The special relationship between certain verbs and prepositions is also addressed. Part III includes valuable charts and concise explanations and summaries such as "The Eight Parts of Speech" and "Pronoun Definitions and Charts." There is also an Answer Key for the numbered exercises in the text.
