Collins Cobuild English Guide
Presented in a clear, user-friendly style, and with logically organized Usage, Grammar and Topics sections, the Collins COBUILD English Usage gives you three books in one and is the indispensable reference tool for learning English today.
Abstract This title looks at both determiners (words such as 'some', 'each' and 'this') and quantifiers (words such as 'plenty' and 'a lot'). Special attention is given to words which learners of English often confuse. The first chapter provides an overview of the functions of determiners and quantifiers in today's English, and explains the distinction between them.
This is followed by chapters on groups of words with similar meanings. The syntactic patterns and possible combinations of determiners are described in full, as are the differences in usage between the words in each group. The text is supported throughout by examples from the Bank of English.
