Yufa! A Practical Guide to Mandarin Chinese Grammar by Wen-Hua Teng, textbooks in the United States. It is not available for purchase in mainland China.

YUFA! A PRACTICAL GUIDE TO MANDARIN CHINESE GRAMMAR takes a unique approach to explaining the major topics of Mandarin Chinese grammar. By providing examples that are rooted in realistic situations, the author shows you how grammar is used in everyday life.The book features:

Chinese characters, pinyin and English translations Realistic scenarios to provide you with an interesting context in which to learn grammar

Varied and imaginative exercises so you can review your progress easily.

Yufa provides an admirably clear and comprehensive account of Mandarin Chinese Grammar. It is accessible and free of confusing jargon without ever trivialising or over-simplifying its subject matter. Excellent use is made of examples to explain grammatical points in context. This will be an invaluable tool for both students and teachers alike. I will certainly recommend it to my own students.
