		Grammar is part of the general study of language called linguistics.
		The subfields of grammar are phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, and semantics.
		The formal study of grammar is an important part of education from a young age through advanced learning, though the rules taught in schools are not a "grammar" in the sense most linguists use the term, as they are often prescriptive rather than descriptive.

		Slovene was also shunned for a period during World War II when Slovenia was divided between the Axis Powers of Fascist Italy, the Nazi Germany and Hungary.
		Slovene is the westernmost language of the Western subgroup of the South Slavonic branch of Slavonic languages.
		In Slovene orthography, phonemes are ordinarily written using the same letter as the one used in IPA, with the exceptions of č, š, and ž, which are not IPA usage, but correspond to /tʃ/, /ʃ/ and /ʒ/ respectively.

	Slovenian language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Slovenian or Slovene (Slovenian: slovenski jezik or slovenščina) is one of the Slavic languages.
		Its grammar is reputedly extremely complex and the large number of named dialects compared to the number of speakers indicates the large amount of variation in the language.
		Proper Slovenian orthography and grammar are sanctified by the Orthographic Commission and the Fran Ramovš Institute of Slovenian Language, which are both part of Slovenian Academy of Sciences and Arts (Slovenska akademija znanosti in umetnosti, SAZU).

		This is the first comprehensive grammar of the language to be published in English, and is an ideal reference source for learners and users of Slovene at every level: independent learners, university and college students, and professional linguists.
		I am an instructor of Slovene, and course writer, and have found it provides a base for teaching Slovene grammar and as a reference for both the teacher and the learner.
		Before this work was published, I had to search laboriously through all available Slovene grammars, written in Slovenian, which consisted of mainly rules, and had to glean, interpret, translate and research the usage for everyday and formal language, and constantly seek advice from native speakers.

	Slovene grammar
		As in English, Slovene features transitive and intransitive verbs, or, in other words, verbs that require a direct object to function properly and those that have exact meaning in themselves already.
		The passive in Slovene is formed by using the verb biti (to be) in the appropriate form, depending on the person, gender, tense and number, and adding to it the full lexical verb with the ending -en, or, in another form, by using the word se and the appropriate form of the full lexical verb.
		A negative pronoun demands a negative predicate, resulting in the so-called double negation, a characteristic of Slovene that is purportedly responsible for the high number of suicides.

	Slovene language - InformationBlast
		Slovenian grammar is reputedly extremely complex and the large number of named Slovenian dialects compared to the number of speakers indicates a large amount of variation in the language.
		The earliest known examples of written Slovene are from the Freising manuscripts (called Brižinski spomeniki in Slovene), which have been dated to between 972 and 1093, and most likely before 1000.
		However, when Slovenia gained independence in 1991, Slovene was made the official language and the language seems to be in a healthy position, especially since Slovenia has been accepted for membership in the European Union.

	Canadian Slavonic Papers: A Comprehensive Grammar
		Peter Herrity's Slovene is the first comprehensive Slovene grammar in English-a gravely needed reference source by English-speaking learners of Slovene, particularly those with deeper interest in its grammar and usage.
		Although this is one of the hardest features of Slovene for a non-native speaker to master, it has been so far given very little attention: the recent Slovene textbooks include more elements of common spoken language than the older ones, but the few reference works have not gone much beyond a mention of this dichotomy.
		The most extensive treatment of the difference between CSS and common spoken Slovene is understandably in phonology, as this is the area where the two variants-because of the modern reduction of short stressed and unstressed vowels-vary the most.

		The Slovene form of the name must be in brackets or written in smaller, different typography.
		An important part of standardization of proper names is their linguistic standardization, in which the correct representation is specified, i.e., the representation of proper names is brought in line with the modern Slovene literary standard and, in particular, with the principles of the Slovene orthography.
