Every grammar point in the series, A to Z and by topic. Find the structure you need, then open the story that teaches it.
Each lesson in Short Stories, Long Shadows teaches one grammar structure through its story, and most stories come at two levels with a different point at each. This index lists 104 grammar points in 11 groups, taken from the Grammar tab of all 169 lessons (90 at B2/C1, 79 at A2/B1, including the novella episodes and the stories from the Teens collection).
Type in the box to filter by structure, story or keyword (try passive, used to or a title such as The Necklace), choose a level, or switch to the A–Z list. Hover over a story to see the exact name of its Grammar tab. Looking for a sequence rather than a reference? Use the suggested teaching order.
