The Little Oxford Guide to English Usage by E S C Weiner
In a new compact format, this usage guide is in the same series with "The Little Oxford Dictionary" and "The Little Oxford Thesaurus". It is a handy guide to good English, and takes the reader through each aspect of writing and speaking, with many examples from the best writers. It also includes advice on spelling, punctuation, grammar, pronunciation, and difficult and misused words. The book includes the latest, up-to-date usage information from Oxford dictionaries. Authors from Dickens to David Lodge illustrate points of usage, and special sections cover cliches and how to avoid them, and English from around the world. Edmund Weiner is the co-editor of the "Oxford English Dictionary" and the "Oxford Dictionary of English Grammar". Andrew Delahunty is the senior lexicographer of the "Longman Dictionary of English Language and Culture".| SKU | Unavailable |
