paperback. Condizione: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only. Codice articolo mon0000034431

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. 40 pages. Cover fadedThe British Broadcasting Corporation, which takes very seriously the task of teaching the English how to speak, has just published this guide to pronunciatio n, diction and grammar. Written by no less an authority than Robert Burchfield, chief editor of the Oxford English Dictionaries, it is often surprisingly lenien t. Citing a sentence of Graham Greene?s as a precedent, Burchfield declines to f orbid absolutely the use of ??like?? as a conjunction. The BBC reports, for exam ple, that the error of confusing ??disinterested?? with ??uninterested?? ??attra cts more unfavorable comment from listeners than any other word, with the possib le exception of ?hopefully.? ?? But Burchfield does not pander to the public. Th e use of ??alternative?? to mean one of several possibilities, instead of simply one of two, is ??vigorously resisted by listeners but impossible to avoid in ma ny contexts,?? he says. On the other hand, he is vigorous and definite in his co ndemnation of such clichs as ??scenario,?? ??at this point in time?? and ??no wa y,?? Americanisms, he says, that have crept into English speech. But throughout it all, he takes a soothingly long historical view of the evolution of language, noting that it has survived other disruptions considerably more serious than wh atever may be happening to it now. As examples, he cites the loss of grammatical gender in Early Middle English and the great vowel shift at the beginning of th e 15th century, when nearly every vowel changed (??hoose?? became ??house,?? and ??gose?? became ??goose??). Reassuringly, he concludes, ??Any argument based on the assumption that the changes occurring in the English language in Great Brit ain at present are more serious or more objectionable than those that have occur.
