Langenscheidt Kurzgrammatik Franzosisch Fur A1-B2
Langenscheidt Kurzgrammatik Franzosisch Fur A1-B2 is Langenscheidt’s compact French grammar for German-speaking learners: the complete rule system from A1 to B2 in one slim volume — French grammar explained in German, exemplified in French, and organised for the moment of need.
French grammar defeats German speakers at predictable places: verbs in shifting groups, a subjunctive German barely keeps, articles and partitives with no German equivalent. A compact grammar written from the German side can meet the learner exactly at those places.
It is made for German-speaking learners of French from elementary to upper-intermediate level, school and university students, and self-studiers who want the rules of French gathered in one portable reference instead of scattered across coursebooks.
The Kurzgrammatik idea is respect for the learner’s time: nobody re-reads a grammar; they consult one, mid-sentence, with the homework open and the doubt specific. This volume is built for that gesture — the whole French system from A1 foundations to B2 fluency, each rule stated compactly in German, proven by a French example, and findable in seconds. Yet it rewards the systematic reader too: worked through level by level, it becomes a revision course that exposes the gaps coursebooks leave — the verb group never quite mastered, the pronoun order never quite automatic. Its German perspective is its precision instrument: the subjonctif is explained against what German does with Konjunktiv, the partitive against German’s silence on the matter, passé composé and imparfait against a German tense system that draws the line elsewhere. Langenscheidt has taught languages to German speakers for generations; the selection here — everything essential, nothing exotic — is that experience in compressed form. For learners heading toward DELF examinations or French-medium study, it is the grammar safety net that fits in a school bag.

About This Book
This is Langenscheidt’s short grammar of French for the German-speaking market: the complete rule system from A1 to B2 in one compact volume — German explanations, French examples, and the French-German contrasts marked wherever the two languages diverge.
What Learners Will Gain
The Verb System, Tamed
French verbs in their groups and tenses — présent, passé composé, imparfait, futur, conditionnel and the subjonctif — laid out as one coherent machine, so conjugation stops being memorised chaos and becomes pattern.
The Structures German Lacks
Partitive articles, pronoun chains before the verb, negation wrapping the verb, agreement of the past participle — the machinery with no German counterpart, given the fuller treatment those structures demand.
Rules Built for Consultation
Compact statements, clear examples, seconds-fast finding: the grammar as a working tool during homework, writing and examination revision, not a tome that must be read in order.
Key Features
Compression without loss is the feature: four levels in one slim volume. The German-language explanations are the second — precision about French in the reader’s own tongue — and Langenscheidt’s learner-tested selection the third.
Who This Book Is For
It is for German-speaking learners of French at A1 to B2, school students with French as a subject, DELF candidates revising grammar, and teachers of French in German-speaking classrooms.
How to Use This Book
Consult it at the point of error: every corrected homework mistake traced back to its rule in this book is a rule learned permanently. For systematic revision, work level by level and keep a personal list of your broken rules — French verbs and pronoun order will top it; review that list weekly until it empties. Before examinations, the tables alone repay an evening: conjugations and sentence patterns refreshed the night before are marks in the bank.
