To the student (working without a teacher)
This is a grammar book for elementary students o f English. There are 114 units in
the book and each unit is about a different point o f English grammar. There is a list
o f units at the beginning o f the book (Contents).
D o not study all the units in order from beginning to end. It is better to choose the
units that you need to do. For example, if you have a problem with the present
perfect (I have been, he has done etc.), use the Index (at the back o f the book) to find
the unit (or units) you need to study (Units 15-20 for the present perfect).
Each unit is two pages. T he information is on the left-hand page and the exercises
are on the right:
You can use the book in this way:
1 Look in the Contents a n d /o r Index to find the unit that you need.
2 Study the left-hand page (information).
3 D o the exercises on the right-hand page.
4 Use the Key to check your answers.
5 Study the left-hand page again if necessary.
D o n ’t forget the seven Appendices at the back o f the book (pages 239-247). These
will give you inform ation about active and passive forms, irregular verbs, short
forms, spelling and phrasal verbs.
There are also Additional exercises at the back o f the book (pages 248-264). There is
a list o f these exercises on page 248.
[6]
To the teacher
The most im portant features o f this book are:
• It is a grammar book. It deals only w ith gram m ar and is not a general course
book.
• It is a book for elementary learners. It does not cover areas o f grammar which
are not normally taught at elementary level.
• It combines reference and exercises in one volume.
• It can be used for self-study or as supplementary course material.
Organisation of the book
There are 114 units in the book, each one focusing on a particular area o f
grammar. T he material is organised in grammatical categories, such as tenses,
questions and articles. Units are not ordered according to difficulty, and should
therefore be selected and used in the order appropriate for the learner(s). T he book
should not be worked through from beginning to end. T he units are listed in the
Contents and there is a comprehensive Index at the end o f the book.
Each unit has the same format consisting o f two facing pages. T he grammar
point is presented and explained on the left-hand page and the corresponding
exercises are on the right. There are seven Appendices (pages 239-247) dealing with
active and passive forms, irregular verbs, short forms (contractions), spelling and
phrasal verbs. It might be useful for teachers to draw students’ attention to these.
This new edition o f Essential Grammar in Use also contains a set o f Additional
exercises (pages 248-264). These exercises provide ‘mixed’ practice bringing
together grammar points from a num ber o f different units (mainly those
concerning verb forms). There are 33 exercises in this section and there is a full list
on page 248.
Finally, there is a Key at the back o f the book (pages 265-295) for students to
check their answers. An edition w ithout the Key is also available for teachers w ho
would prefer their students to use this.
Level
T he book is for elementary learners, i.e. learners with very little English, but 1
would not expect it to be used from the first day o f a course for complete
beginners. It is intended mainly for elementary students w ho are beyond the very
earliest stages o f a beginners’ course. It could also be used by lower in termediate
learners whose grammar is weaker than other aspects o f their English or w ho have
problems with particular areas o f ‘elem entary’ grammar.
T he explanations are addressed to the elementary learner and are therefore as
simple and as short as possible. T he vocabulary used in the examples and exercises
has also been restricted so that the book can be used at this level.
Using the book
T he book can be used by students working alone (see To the student) or as
supplementary course material. In either case the book can serve as an elementary
grammar book.
[7
W hen used as course material, the book can be used for immediate
consolidation or for later revision or remedial work. It might be used by the whole
class or by individual students needing extra help and practice.
In some cases it may be desirable to use the left-hand pages (presentation and
explanation) in class, but it should be noted that these have been w ritten for
individual study and reference. In most cases, it would probably be better for the
teacher to present the grammar point in his/her preferred way w ith the exercises
being done for hom ework. T he left-hand page is then available for later reference
by the student.
Some teachers may prefer to keep the book for revision and remedial work. In
this case, individual students or groups o f students can be directed to the
appropriate units for self-study and practice.
Changes from the first edition
T he main changes from the first edition are:
• There are six new units:
U nit 16 present perfect + just/already/yet
U nit 22 passive (is being done / has been done)
U nit 25 I used to ...
U nit 56 do and make
U nit 57 have
U nit 112 i f I had ... / if we w ent... etc.
There is also a new appendix on active and passive forms (Appendix 1).
• Some o f the material has been revised and reorganised. For example, the
content o f Units 99-100 (in/at/on) in the new edition corresponds to U nit 94
and part o f U nit 96 in the old edition.
• Some units have been redesigned, for example U nit 41 (originally 39) and
U nit 54 (originally 52).
• Some o f the units have been reordered and (after U nit 8) nearly all units have
a different num ber from the original edition. A few units have been moved to
different parts o f the book. For example, U nit 50 (work /working etc.) was
originally U nit 34.
• Many o f the left-hand pages have been rewritten and many o f the examples
changed. In a few cases there are significant changes to the content, for
example U nit 51 (originally 47), U nit 73 (originally 68) and U nit 82
(originally 77).
• Many o f the original exercises have been modified or completely replaced
with new exercises (for example, Units 4 and 5).
• There is a new section o f Additional exercises at the back o f the book (see
Organisation of the book above).

(You) sh o u ld do something = it is a good thing to do, it is the right thing to do:
• Tom s h o u ld go to bed earlier. He goes to bed very late and he’s always tired.
• It’s a good film. You sh o u ld go and see it.
• When you play tennis, you sh o u ld always w a tc h the ball.
(You) s h o u ld n ’t do something = it is not a good thing to do. S h o u ld n ’t = should not:
• Tom s h o u ld n ’t go to bed so late.
• You watch TV all the time. You s h o u ld n ’t w a tc h TV so much.
We often use th in k ' with should:
I th in k ... sh o u ld
• I th in k Carol sh o u ld b u y some new clothes.
(= I think it is a good idea.)
• Its late. I th in k I sh o u ld go home now.
• A: Shall I buy this coat?

• D o you th in k I sh o u ld b u y this hat?

M ust is stronger than should:
• It’s a g o o d film. You sh o u ld go and see it.
• It’s a fan ta stic film. You m u s t go and see it.
Another way to say sh o u ld ... is o u g h t to ... :

In these examples, it is not necessary to repeat words (‘he is tired’, ‘she doesn’t like tea’).
You can use these verbs in the same way:
• I haven’t got a car but my sister has. (— my sister has got a car)
a m /is /a re

will
B: She m ig h t. (= she might phone)
m ig h t
•
A:
Are you going now?

You cannot use ’m / ’s / ’ve etc. (short forms) in this way. You must use a m /is /h a v e etc.:
• She isn’t tired but he is. (not ... but lies)
But you can use isn ’t / h a v e n ’t / w o n ’t etc. (negative short forms):
• My sister has got a car but I h a v e n ’t.
• ‘Are you and Jim working tomorrow?’ ‘I am but Jim isn ’t.’

• ‘Will Alan be here tomorrow?’ ‘Yes, he will. / No, he w o n ’t.’
• ‘Is there a bus to the airport?’ ‘Yes, there is. / No, there isn ’t.’
We use d o /d o e s for the present simple: (=^> Units 6—7)
• I don’t like hot weather but Sue does. (= Sue likes hot weather)
• Sue works hard but I d o n ’t. (—I don’t work hard)
• ‘Do you enjoy your work?’ ‘Yes, I do.’
We use did for the past simple: (=> U nit 12)

B: I d id but John d id n ’t. (= 1 enjoyed it but John didn’t enjoy it)
• ‘I enjoyed the film.’ ‘I d id too.’ (= I enjoyed it too)

Short forms (he’s / I’d / don’t etc.)
Appendix 4
In spoken English we usually pronounce ‘I a m ’ as one word. The short form (I’m ) is a way o f
w riting this:
I am
it is
th ey have
• I’m feeling tired this morning.
• ‘D o you like this jacket?’ ‘Yes, it’s very nice.’
• ‘W here are your friends?’ ‘They’ve gone home.’
-> I ’m
i t ’s
—> th e y ’ve
etc.
W hen we write short forms, we use ’ (an apostrophe):
1 )(m —> I’m
he fs —> he’s
you }^ve —> you’ve
4.2
she \^ill —> she’ll
We usc these forms with I /h e /s h e etc.:

’s = is or has:
• She’s going out this evening, (she’s going = she is going)
• She’s gone out. (she’s gone = she has gone)
’d = w o u ld or had:
• A: W hat would you like to eat?
B: I’d like a salad, please. (I’d like = I w o u ld like)
• 1 told the police that I’d lost my passport. (I’d lost = I h a d lost)
D o not use ’m / ’s / ’d etc. at the end o f a sentence (=> U nit 39):
• ‘Are you tired?’ ‘Yes, I a m .’ (not ‘Yes, I’m.’)
4-3
[242]
We use short forms w ith I /y o u /h e /s h e etc. but you can use short forms (especially’s) with
other words too:
• W h o ’s your favourite singer? (= w ho is)
• W h a t’s the time? (= what is)
• T h e r e ’s a big tree in the garden. (= there is)
• M y siste r’s working in London. (= my sister is working)
