A new Estonian grammar book "Eesti grammatika" has been published

Estonian linguists have published a new improved Estonian language grammer book. The book contains more than a thousand pages and is for people who already have some knowledge about the grammatical structure of the Estonian language. The book brings together the different levels of the language in five main chapters. Pronunciation, word change, word formation as well as written and spoken language sentence teaching are covered.  It also has a separate phonetics and phonology section (not present in other grammer books), which deals with the smallest units that distinguish meaning in the structure of the language.

ERR News recently interviewed the linguists who created the book. You can watch it here.
