A Russian Reference Grammar

Harvard University Press has partnered with De Gruyter to make available for sale worldwide virtually all in-copyright HUP books that had become unavailable since their original publication. The 2,800 titles in the “e-ditions” program can be purchased individually as PDF eBooks or as hardcover reprint (“print-on-demand”) editions via the “Available from De Gruyter” link above. They are also available to institutions in ten separate subject-area packages that reflect the entire spectrum of the Press’s catalog. More about the E-ditions Program »

“The aim of the author is to supplement the elementary grammar which beginners learn in the normal primer by a more systematic exposition of the inflections of nouns, adjectives, numerals, and verbs. Particular care has been given to the rules governing accentuation and there are appendices on the use of cases and of tenses and moods. This is emphatically a reference work for use by advanced students, and will throw a good deal of light on difficulties which the beginner must pass over. There is, too, a valuable section in which the complexities of Russian pronunciation are clearly presented with a careful phonetic transcription.”—Times Educational Supplement
