Understanding and Teaching Reflexive Sentences in Spanish: Verber, Verbed Grammar

Autor Luis H. González
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 25 feb 2022
Understanding and Teaching Reflexive Sentences in Spanish provides a fresh, simple, and novel approach to understanding and teaching the use of the intransitivizing se.
Understanding reflexive sentences can be challenging for learners of Spanish. Instead of expecting learners to memorize multiple rules, the author offers one simple rule that allows learners to intuitively understand and use reflexive sentences. Sample exercises for students at all levels of language proficiency are also provided to practice and internalize the new approach.
This book will be of interest to teachers and learners of any second language, as well as linguists interested in second language acquisition or in second language teaching or pedagogy.

Recenzii

"As  an  explanation  aimed  at simplifying  the  learner's  burden,  I  find  it  difficult  to  imagine  a different  approach  that  leads  to  such  an  extensive  empirical  coverage  without  losing  much grammatical  information. [...] The structure of the monograph is reader-friendly, terminology is kept to aminimum,and each term is clarified, step by step. [...] The  abundance  of  types  of  se  in traditional  studies  has  always  been  a  problem,  both  from  a theoretical perspective and from a didactic perspective. Any attempt at simplifying this picture is welcome, and in particular this monograph presents a simple theory that covers a broad variety ofcases. While many of the explanations could be developedin moredetail –something impossible given that the book makes a point of being short enough to allow thereader to coverit in a short time–, this book is detailed enough to benefit students and teachers preparing their classes on this topic.  It  is,  moreover,  original  in  being  the  first  monograph,  to  my  knowledge,  that  presents  a theory of se-structures that tries to unify them within the context of teaching and learning."
