The explanations are presented in English and accompanied by multiple examples in Spanish. When appropriate, differences between Spanish and English are presented. Each section is followed by exercises for practice. The last section of the book contains a list of the Spanish words used in the examples and exercises throughout the book. The book is intended for Spanish learners at the intermediate level of proficiency and above who wish to master the use of accents in writing, and for Spanish instructors who present this aspect of the language in their classes. Readers who want to delve deeper into the issues will find additional details and subtleties in the boxes named "For More."
