Year: 2022 Language: english Author: Bryan A. Garner Genre: Textbook Publisher: Oxford University Press Edition: 5th ISBN: 9780197599020 Format: EPUB Quality: eBook Pages count: 1312 Print length Description: The purpose of Garner's dictionary is to help speakers use the language effectively. And it does so in a playful and persuasive way that will help you sound "grammatical but relaxed, refined but natural, correct but unpedantic." This extensively revised new edition fully captures these changes, featuring a thousand new entries and over two hundred replacement entries, thoroughly updated usage data and ratios on word frequency based on the Google Ngram Viewer, a more balanced coverage of World Englishes, not just American and British, and the inclusion of gender-neutral language. However, one thing has not changed: in no sense is this a "regular" dictionary but a masterpiece of lexicography written with wit and personality by one of the preeminent authorities on the English language. To put it in David Foster Wallace's words, Garner's discussion of rhetoric and style still "borders on genius." • The masterly fifth edition of one of the most influential and beloved style guides ever produced for the English language • Over 7,000 entries single-handedly written by one of the preemintent authorities on grammar, style, rhetoric, and legal writing • Informative and persuasive, but also lively and witty, this is an essential read for anyone interested in writing effectively
