In reply to Tam. Can you please be a little bit more specific? What's your current level of Chinees? What do you want it for? For most puproses, I think the Chinese Grammar Wiki is quite enough.

Hey. I am looking for a good Chinese grammar book with traditional characters, any ideas?

I have found a version of this book in simplified characters on amazon.cn. I think I’m going to buy it, it does sound very useful.

In reply to Benj. I'm pretty sure that it's only in traditional, but I don't have it here so I can't actually check for you. However, I don't think this matters much since the reason I recommend the book is because the explanations are great. Sure, the examples are in traditional Chinese, but there is Pinyin, so even if you have never studied traditional characters, it should still be fairly easy to understand.

In reply to Olle Linge. Is the whole book in traditional characters or just the title? Also could someone post the simplified characters for the title? Thanks

In reply to insighter. There should be, but since I haven't tried any of them personally I can't really recommend any. Sorry! Do let me know if you find a good one, though, these books are really awesome.

I’ve been meaning to get a book like this, but I’m assuming this synonym-dictionary is only available in 繁体字。Are you aware of a comparably useful 简体字 alternative?

In reply to Sara K.. Cool, thanks! I note that it's roughly five times as expensive as when I bought it. :)
