A ''Bescherelle'' is a French language grammar reference book best known for its verb conjugations volumes. It is named in honour of the 19th century French lexicographer and grammarian Louis-Nicolas Bescherelle (and perhaps, his brother Henri Bescherelle). It is often used as a general term, though the "Collection Bescherelle" is in fact a brand name, used by Editions Hatier for editions on Parisian French, and by Editions Hurtubise for editions on Canadian French. The series is made up of three volumes dealing with various aspects of French grammar. Each of the three volumes use example sentences to demonstrate proper French grammar. The term ''Bescherelle'' is often used to refer to the first book, ''L'art de conjuguer''. ''L'art de conjuguer'' (The art of conjugation) presents the conjugation of every type of verb in the French language in every verb tense. Each verb type is numbered, so that multiple verbs with identical conjugation (such as ''chanter'' and ''enchanter'') can be grouped under one basic verb of that type. ''L'art de conjuguer'' also offers all of the rules concerning grammar within verb conjugation as well as a detailed guide on the purpose of each verb tense. The most recent versions cover 12,000 verbs in 95 conjugation tables. The second volume, ''L'orthographe pour tous'' (Spelling for everyone) explains how to convert spoken sounds in French into writing. The third volume, ''Grammaire pour tous'' (Grammar for everyone) is a guide on French syntax, sentence structure, the application of proper grammar to sentences, and punctuation. Bescherelles (''L'art de conjuguer'' in particular) are commonly used in French immersion schools and it is often required that students purchase one for class. Bescherelles also exist on the grammars of German, English, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Arabic and Latin, although they do not have the popularity of the original French. Similarly, there are not only editions written for students whose first language is the subject, but also editions for students with a grounding in another language. A student chooses an edition to either use their existing or their new language to read ''about'' the new one. Although the word ''Bescherelle'' has the ending ''-elle'', it is a masculine noun in French (le Bescherelle). There is an iPhone and iPad application named ''Bescherelle ‐ Le conjugueur'', which contains all of the French language verbs. It was published by the two French publishers: Anuman Interactive and Hatier.〔http://www.itrpress.com/cp/2010/2010-01-22_21773.pdf〕 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bescherelle」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
