( ) The short review (long one later, I hope): If you've ever said "I feel badly" and you weren't talking about your lousy Braille skills, you need this book. And if you've ever struggled with when to use "bring" as opposed to "take," you'll be reassured by June Casagrande's sympathetic treatment of the subject. (Hint: choosing between these two words isn't as easy as it looks.) Most important of all, Casagrande gives terrific advice about when being (grammatically) right just isn't worth the fight. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
The only fun, friendly, and surefire defense against the grammar snobs Having already made a name for herself with Grammar Snobs Are Great Big Meanies, now in its fifth printing, June Casagrande returns with Mortal Syntax, taking on the 101 most frequently attacked usage choices. Dedicating one short chapter to each, Casagrande brings her subject to life, teaching English usage through lively and amusing personal anecdotes. Mortal Syntax includes such chapters as: ? "I wish I was taller" ? "I am continuously watching Simpsons reruns" ? "Was it Horton that heard the Who?" Casagrande's clear and concise lessons-with entertaining titles and themes-make a potentially prickly subject go down like a spoonful of sugar. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
