- This is a self-study reference and practice book for INTERMEDIATE (B1, B2) learners. It has well over 100 units and covers just about every grammar topic you could imagine, including verb tenses, prepositions, modal verbs, phrasal verbs, relative clauses… I love this book because each topic gives both a page of explanations and a page of exercises. The explanations are extremely clear! The answers are in the back of the book, and it even includes extra review exercises.

- This version includes an interactive eBook with downloadable audio.
The Grammar in Use range also has books for elementary and advanced learners:

I will never ever make mistake with this word again. The explanation was excellent. Thanks a lot Emma!
Thank you! It's my pleasure 😊🌻😊🌻
I'm now confident about how to pronounce 'Albeit,' and I'm finally able to construct sentences using the word; all thanks to the incredible lesson here.
Thank you for taking time to create this video, Teacher Em! I wish I had discovered it much earlier.
Excellent! I'm glad I could help 😊🌻
Thank you
My pleasure😊🌻
wonderful my great tutor !
Thanks 😊🌻
thanks
You're welcome 😊🌻
👍👍👍
Hello Emma, good to see you again! Albeit cannot be used at the beginning of the clause, can't it ? It's not like although/ even though? Hope you are well !
Hi! Some people say that it is possible to start with the subordinate clause, for example: Albeit slowly, she finished her work.
However, I don't think that's correct. It sounds very strange to me and I would never use it that way. I also checked the British National Corpus, and the Corpus of Contemporary English, and I didn't find any examples of it being used that way.
All good with me, thanks! A bit depressed by the miserable British weather 😂. I hope all's well with you! 😊
@@EnglishWithEm Yes I concur, the weather is UK can be depressing ! How about flying to Benidorm? Not only is it hot enough and cheap, but no need to speak Spanish either, since the Brits took over the whole city 😂
@@freddiemercury8700 I would love to! I lived in Spain for 8 years, so I can speak Spanish, albeit badly! I am planning to return, but sadly it won't be before November because I work the summers at a British university. I've never been to Benidorm, but I spent some time in Alicante earlier this year. Wonderful sunsets!
I'm curious... are you Spanish?
@@EnglishWithEm Albeit baldly!😁😂 No, I am from Casablanca Morocco.
@@freddiemercury8700 😁 I've never been to Morocco. I wasn't far away in Huelva. Missed opportunity!
Hello teacher @Engling with EM
Therefore, rarely have a vast majority of people, albeit reluctantly, advocated these notion due to some reasons.
Can I use like this
Is it right
Hi! Yes, with a few small corrections: Therefore, rarely have the vast majority of people, albeit reluctantly, advocated these notions (I'm not clear about the ending of the phrase. Do you mean that you are not sure what the reason is? Or that they have various reasons?).
Hello, Sorry for disturbing you. According to the rules, I should say, "My grandfather "has been" the only person in my family who has passed this exam."(Albeit he died in 2016, but I can't use "was" because he has been the only one ever since.)
The same goes for "Indira Gandhi has been the only female Prime Minister of India". (Albeit she died in 1984, it has continued till now, so I should use has been,shouldn't I? )
Ooh… interesting question! I don’t think I’ve ever thought about this before. It sounds strange to say ‘has been’ for someone who has died, but it also isn’t correct to say ‘was… who has…’. The most natural way for me to say it is ‘My grandfather was the only one in the family to have passed the exam.’ ‘Indira Gandhi was the only female to have been Prime Minister of India’. By using ‘was’, we understand that the person is no longer with us. By using ‘the only one to have + v3’, we put the focus on the group and we understand that the group is still with us, even though 1 member is not.
@@EnglishWithEm Thanks a ton!
@@akshatmukundam974 Always a pleasure! :-)
