This book is destined to linguists possessing at least the rudiments of Slovak or of some other Slavonic language and able to use a Slovak-English dictionary.
This is not a text-book but a normative handbook of the Slovak language. The descriptive style is applied here. This concise Grammar of Contemporary Slovak is understood within a rather wider context, discussing, apart from grammar itself, also the development of the language. Sections dealing with pronunciation, orthography, vocabulary and dialectology are also to be found in the book. With regard to the type of language, a major part is devoted to morphology. Contrasting notes are given in the text — directly or indirectly — only in places where they seemed indispensable with regard to the different language types of English and Slovak.
The author is a linguist and a university professor who had worked at the universities of Oxford and Sheffield, in Cologne and in Moscow. He gave lectures at various universities in the U.S.S.R., Germany, Austria, in Yugoslavia and also at international conferences organized in Hungary, Bulgaria, Poland and in the German Democratic Republic. So far Jozef Mistrik has published a great number of books. The most important are:
Slovosled a vetosled v slovencine (1969)
Exakte Typologie von Texten (1973)
Žánre vecnej literatúry (1975)
Retrográdny slovník slovenčiny (1976)
Štylistika slovenského jazyka (1977)
Dramatický text (1979)
