Download or read book The Chicago Guide to Grammar Usage and Punctuation written by Bryan A. Garner and published by Univ of Chicago+ORM. This book was released on 2016-05-16 with total page 680 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The authoritative guide to using the English language effectively, from “the greatest writer on grammar and usage that this country has ever produced” (David Yerkes, Columbia University). The author of The Chicago Manual of Style’s popular “Grammar and Usage” chapter, Bryan A. Garner is renowned for explaining the vagaries of English with absolute precision and utmost clarity. With The Chicago Guide to Grammar, Usage, and Punctuation, he has written the definitive guide for writers who want their prose to be both memorable and correct. Garner describes standard literary English—the forms that mark writers and speakers as educated users of the language. He also offers historical context for understanding the development of these forms. The section on grammar explains how the canonical parts of speech came to be identified, while the section on syntax covers the nuances of sentence patterns as well as both traditional sentence diagramming and transformational grammar. The usage section provides an unprecedented trove of empirical evidence in the form of Google Ngrams, diagrams that illustrate the changing prevalence of specific terms over decades and even centuries of English literature. Garner also treats punctuation and word formation, and concludes the book with an exhaustive glossary of grammatical terms and a bibliography of suggested further reading and references. The Chicago Guide to Grammar, Usage, and Punctuation is a magisterial work, the culmination of Garner’s lifelong study of the English language. The result is a landmark resource that will offer clear guidelines to students, writers, and editors alike. “[A manual] for those of us laboring to produce expository prose: nonfiction books, journalistic articles, memorandums, business letters. The conservatism of his advice pushes you to consider audience and occasion, so that you will understand when to follow convention and when you can safely break it.”—John E. McIntyre, Baltimore Sun
Download or read book The Broadview Guide to Grammar Usage and Punctuation written by Corey Frost and published by Broadview Press. This book was released on 2024-02-21 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many years, the coverage of grammar and usage in The Broadview Guide to Writing has received particular praise. Now, for the first time, that material is made available in a stand-alone volume. Readable, reliable, and comprehensive, The Broadview Guide to Grammar, Usage, and Punctuation is appropriate for students at all post-secondary levels. The book is divided into four sections. The Grammar section provides unrivalled coverage of complete and incomplete sentences, dangling constructions, and other subjects that give many writers special difficulty. The Usage section offers sensible and up-to-date advice on hundreds of points that frequently cause confusion. The Punctuation section provides a wealth of helpful guidance on all aspects of punctuation, with particular attention paid to such vexed questions as when to use the colon and the semi-colon, and (when using quotation marks) how to properly integrate quotations into one’s own text. A final section, English as an Additional Language, gives a wide range of helpful advice on special issues that may arise for those whose native language is not English. A companion website provides hundreds of exercises on every topic covered in the book itself. Many of these are interactive; on completing an exercise, students are told how they did—and explanations are provided as to why the right answers are right and the wrong answers are wrong.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Journalism -- the Fourth Estate -- has established itself as an integral part of our society. Happenings in India during the British Raj and post-independence are the best testimony of it. Editing is the most significant part of journalism. It plays a significant role in determining the quality of a newspaper or magazine. The purpose of the book is to describe the job of editors and list skills that make them successful. It will assist all those who are in the profession or are thinking of joining it or have entered it with high ambitions. Practicing journalists aiming to move upwards will also benefit from having a point of reference and a source of idea. The book will be extremely useful for students of media and journalism. The book will help journalists to perform their job better equipped and ensure that they commit fewer mistakes. They would learn the art and science of effective editing and would not find the language of their colleague alien. They will understand the way things have been done in the past and also learn the newer ways of doing editing. The art of editing falls into two categories: journalistic skills to do the job; and editing skills that make the unintelligible readable. In the past, most of us learnt it through a painful process of trial and error. We don't want the new comers to suffer from that pain and therefore this book Communication Skills: Effective Editing.

Topics covered in this book include language variation and change and the politics of language contact and choice, seen against the background of standardization processes of written and oral text genres and from the viewpoint of larger sections of the population.
