Greek: A Comprehensive Grammar of the Modern Language
Holton, Mackridge and Philippaki-Warburton's standard reference grammar of Modern Greek.
What it actually is
The definitive English-language description of Modern Greek, covering the whole verb system, clitics, mood and aspect, and register variation, with copious real examples. It is what you consult when a course book's rule doesn't account for what you're reading. Strictly a reference — organised by structure, not sequenced for study — and priced accordingly. Most learners should start with the same authors' shorter 'Greek: An Essential Grammar' and only graduate to this one.
