On Screen C2 – Workbook & Grammar (with Digibooks App)

CEFR LEVEL C2 – Because this book target the C2 Proficiency level (the highest tier of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages), the grammar does not focus on basic tenses. Instead, it covers advanced, complex structural nuances required for near-native fluency.

Key grammatical areas typically mastered at this level in the course include:
– Advanced Inversion: Structures used for emphasis or dramatic effect (e.g., “Not until…”, “Seldom had he…”).
– Complex Conditionals: Mixed conditionals, inverted conditionals (“Should you require…”), and advanced concession clauses.
– Subjunctive Mood: Formality markers in English grammar (“It is vital that he remain…”).
– Cleft Sentences: Information packaging to add emphasis (“What it emphasizes is…”, “It was the grammar that…”).
– Advanced Passive & Causative Structures: Impersonal passive reports and intricate causative structures.
– Distanced Reporting: Sophisticated structures for attributing statements (“is rumored to have been”, “is understood to be”).
