Portuguese Verbs Explained is for all students of Portuguese, including the self-taught learner and AE, GCSE, A Level and university classes.
Portuguese Verbs Explained covers equally European and Brazilian Portuguese and combines three books in one:
* a reference book
* a course book
* an aid book on grammatical concepts and terms
Portuguese Verbs Explained describes the Portuguese verbs as used by native speakers around the Portuguese-speaking world. It can be used either as a reference tool or a course of study and is also a study aid on grammatical notions and terminology.
It is suitable for
* absolute beginners and those who want to brush up and advance their Portuguese
* learners with basic or no knowledge of grammatical terminology
* the independent learner, Adult Education classes, GCSE, A Level and university courses
* teachers and practitioners such as translators and interpreters
* learners of the Portuguese language on both sides of the Atlantic and anywhere else where it may be spoken
This book provides
* a complete guide to all kinds of Portuguese verbs, their tenses and forms, covering both regular and special verbs (irregular, root-changing, spelling-changing, and other cases)
* a complete guide to using Portuguese verbs in a sentence
* tables and charts for quick reference on all the different kinds of verbs
In this book Portuguese verbs are described in plain language and illustrated with authentic examples of everyday practical application. Detailed information is given on how the whole Portuguese verb system works. Throughout, comparisons are drawn between Portuguese and English verb tenses and usage, highlighting their parallel and contrasting features in the different forms for the present, past and future, as well as other aspects.
The following features are also included to give learners extra support and make their learning a more enjoyable and rewarding experience:
* a glossary of grammatical terms providing clear definitions in simple English
* English translation of the Portuguese examples
* complementary notes and learning aid paragraphs giving tips and avoiding pitfalls
* exercises including puzzles and quizzes
* answers for all the exercises
* Portuguese-English vocabulary containing the verbs used in the examples and the exercises
* an extensive cross-reference index at the end of the book with usage-led entries for those who are not familiar with grammatical terms

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
