It is designed for independent English-speaking adult korean -as-a-foreign-language (KFL) learners who intend to maintain and strengthen their knowledge of essential korean Grammar and for classroom-based learners who are looking for supplemental Grammar explanations and practices.

9 Consequently, this book differs from existing KFL materials whose primary purpose is to help KFL learners acquire four language skills, such as listening, speaking, reading, and writing as well as cultural knowledge. The layout of this book also differs from those of existing KFL mater-ials. For instance, a typical KFL textbook chapter may include model dia-logues, followed by vocabulary lists, Grammar explanations, cultural notes, and exercises. In contrast, following the pattern of Basic korean and other Grammar Workbooks of the Routledge series, every unit of Intermediate korean focuses on presenting jargon-free and concise Grammar explana-tions, followed by relevant Grammar exercises.

10 This book has 24 units, and it does not take a functional -situational approach in grouping and/or sequencing target grammatical points. Rather it sequences and covers grammatical points according to their grammatical categories ( , sentence endings, conjunctives, particles, and so on), so that learners can use the book as a reference material as well as a practice material. The exercises at the end of each unit are designed primarily to reinforce the target grammatical korean entries are presented in Hangul (the korean alphabet) with English translations to facilitate understanding. Accordingly, it requires that learners familiarize themselves with Hangul, before going on to the book.
