Business Grammar in Real Life C1–C2: 24 Advanced Grammar Points for Senior Professionals — with Exercises and Answer Key (Ebook)

The grammar of precision, persuasion and diplomacy, for professionals who already speak English well.

At C1 and C2, the question is no longer "Is this correct?" but "Is this exactly what I mean, in exactly the right tone?" Business Grammar in Real Life C1–C2 covers the 24 grammar points that make the biggest difference to how senior professionals sound, and shows each one in the board papers, negotiations, interviews and difficult conversations where it matters.

Inside this book

• 24 advanced grammar points: hedging, nominalisation, cleft sentences, inversion, advanced and negotiation conditionals, concession, hedged causality, discourse markers and register
• Realistic senior-level texts with the grammar in bold: executive summaries, board briefings, negotiation emails, interview answers and project reviews
• Clear rules tables with C1 and C2 tags, and a tip on the trickiest point in each chapter
• 240 exercises, a quick check in every chapter, four Part reviews and a complete answer key with model answers
• "Say this, not that": 96 points where even very advanced speakers slip, in grammar, tone or register
