Misadventures in the English Language
文法、字彙、標點符號……,一些看似簡單的規則,卻能為你的英語力帶來加倍活力,幫你避開陳腔濫調,說出一口好英文。
?
?
作者使用許多例子告訴讀者為何標點符號在文句中扮演重要角色,同義字為何令人厭煩,有些頑皮或可怕的字,實際意義卻可能完全不一樣。
?
語言的用法與詞彙一直在改變,100年前使用的語言,現在看起來似乎變得很可笑。作者Taggart憑藉著對語言的豐富知識與經驗,探討所有有關英語的語言問題,幫助讀者避免令人尷尬的陳腔濫調,將文字放在正確的位置,欣賞英語豐富的多樣性以及有趣之處。(文/博客來編譯)

This book looks at some of the controversial aspects of English usage—grammar, vocabulary, and punctuation—and tries to assess what matters and what doesn’t. Looking at why it pays to be precise in punctuation—the hackneyed examples of 'Let’s eat Grandma' and 'Eats, Shoots and Leaves' show how a comma can make all the difference—why tautologies are simply annoying; and how corporate speak can actually mean nothing at all; this book covers the aspects of the English language that could leave you with cause for concern. It also considers where we are now, appraising the invention of new words—from kidult to piscetarian. By turns an explanation of the rules, a rant against gobbledygook and other modern horrors, this book will aid you in avoiding embarrassing clichés and jargon, and help you put your words in the right places.
