Swedish : An Elementary Grammar-Reader. Gladys Hird. This grammar-reader is based on almost twenty years' experience of teaching beginners
the Swedish language and is reassuringly practical in approach. Miss Hird's aims are threefold: to provide a compromise between the traditional
grammar-readers and the new textbooks which are not designed for beginners outside Sweden; to supply grammatical information and exercises
and reading texts together for ease of reference; and to stimulate the student's interest in Swedish life, institutions and culture.
The grammar part of the book is in seventeen lessons, each comprising a text in Swedish which Miss Hird has specially composed to include useful
vocabulary and graded grammatical points upon which exercises including translation exercises are set for practice. The central theme of the texts
is Stockholm, and attractive drawings illustrate it. To help the student, there is a full vocabulary list covering all the lessons, a brief summary of
Swedish grammar, a glossary of grammatical terms, a check list of irregular verbs and a comprehensive index of the grammatical points covered in
the book.

But as a native English speaker, it was difficult to find the right textbook for tackling the language on my own. This textb When I began graduate
studies in Helsingfors a few years ago, I was keen on learning Swedish. This textbook was published in and was long difficult to come by, but
thankfully it saw a recent reprinting in paperback. Get it! Basic Swedish grammar and lexicon is spread out over 16 lessons in a supremely easy to
digest fashion.
The text that introduces each lesson often tells the reader something about Swedish life and culture--useful for someone studying abroad without
daily contact with the country like me, over in Finland. I found the exercises at the end of each lesson sufficient for judging whether I had
internalized the new material. There's no answer key, but you can't really learn Swedish without some native speaker with whom you can apply
what you've learned, so have them check your exercises. Swedish has rather idiosyncratic pronunciation, so you'll want to find some audio
material, even if it's just a few listens of whatever is in your local library, but if you are just starting out you don't need to supplement Hird's work
with any other textbook.
These are a bit old now, but except for the Strindberg still contemporary Swedish, and you'll find that the textbook prepares you very well for
them. Even if Hird's course is priced rather highly to be expected of Cambridge University Press , this may well be the best option for the
autodidact. Sep 06, B rated it it was amazing. This is a fantastic find. The book is set up in chapters, each increasing in difficulty. The work of
translating each passage is left solely to the reader, and the questions are intended to help the reader learn. Most of them, with a little thought,
provide answers and tips to the rest of the questions. Despite not having a This is a fantastic find.
