Mind the Gaffe by R L Trask
Exasperated by marking exam scripts, the author checked some 2500 of the most common errors his students made. The result is this guide which points the reader to pitfalls in English and how to avoid them, written with wit and panache. Correct usage, spelling and grammar are all covered.
Professor Trask has taught in the School of Cognitive and Computing Science at the University of Sussex since 1988. He is the author of many books on language and lingusitics including THE PENGUIN GUIDE TO PUNCTUATION and THE PENGUIN DICTIONARY OF ENGLISH GRAMMAR.
