This is the third book in Usha Jain's widely used series of textbooks, following her Introduction to Hindi Grammar and Intermediate Hindi Reader. An invaluable resource for intermediate and advanced Hindi students and instructors, Advanced Hindi Grammar provides systematic training of advanced Hindi grammar and syntax, reinforced by exercises so that students acquire language skills sufficient to approach literary texts on their own.

This comprehensive advanced Hindi grammar textbook, divided into twenty-five distinct lessons or chapters, combines detailed explanations of advanced Hindi grammar points with accompanying drills and exercises. Such exercises have proven to be an invaluable pedagogical tool for practicing and internalizing new grammatical concepts. The text is written using non-technical language, making it accessible to students of all disciplines.

In addition, both a glossary and appendices have been provided. The glossary covers all the new vocabulary introduced in the text. The appendices, which also include words not used in the text, provide extensive lists of common adverbs, postpositions, and conjunctions.
