The Articles in Polish-English Translation - Przedimek w języku angielskim by:

Christian Douglas Kozłowska

Książka przeznaczona jest dla osób studiujących i używających języka angielskiego, a  dotyczy jednego z najtrudniejszych dla Polaków problemów:  użycia lub opuszczenia przedimka.   Zasady podane w książce ilustrowane są cytatami z tekstów angielskich.  Poznanie zasad użycia przedimków  ułatwiają również przykłady w języku polskim  i ich angielskie ekwiwalenty. Książka zawiera ćwiczenia kontrolne wraz z kluczem,  przez co może być przydatna także w autodydaktyce.

This book is specially suitable  for Polish-speaking students, though most of the explanations and examples are given in English.
