Description

A Plain Language Guide to Grammar, Punctuation and Writing Well is a straightforward guide to improving your writing skills. It demystifies common grammar and punctuation issues in plain English, providing clear instructions for correct use. You'll find explanations for topics such as the subjunctive, split infinitives, and the difference between 'fewer' and 'less', as well as guidance on active and passive sentences, commonly used foreign words and phrases, and word classes. The book also addresses common conundrums like that or which?, affect or effect?, and whose or who's?. This guide offers sensible advice for careful writers, including an introduction to politically correct writing. It's not a comprehensive reference, but it provides useful no-nonsense guidance for those looking to improve their writing skills.
