Garner's Modern English Usage • Fourth Edition
2016 | English | ISBN 0190491485 | MOBI, PDF | 15.25 MB
This book is a successor to three editions (1998, 2003, 2009) of Garner's Modern American Usage. With more than a thousand new entries and more than 2,300 word - frequency ratios, the magisterial fourth edition of this book - now renamed Garner's Modern English Usage (GMEU) - reflects usage lexicography at its finest. Garner explains the nuances of grammar and vocabulary with thoroughness, finesse, and wit. He discourages whatever is slovenly, pretentious, or pedantic. GMEU is the liveliest and most compulsively readable reference work for writers of our time. It delights while providing instruction on skillful, persuasive, and vivid writing. Garner liberates English from two extremes: both from the hidebound "purists" who mistakenly believe that split infinitives and sentence-ending prepositions are malfeasances and from the linguistic relativists who believe that whatever people say or write must necessarily be accepted.
