Written by Rob Colter. Published by House of Anansi Press Ltd., 2005. Description: |
| This convenient, portable guide provides straightforward
solutions to the most common problems of Canadian English grammar and
usage. Fully revised and expanded, this new edition of Rob Colter's bestselling Grammar To Go contains four sections: Grammar and Style, Spelling, Punctuation, and Common Confusions. Within each section the entries are alphabetically arranged for easy reference. This is not a grammar book in the conventional sense of that dreaded word: you don't need to know any grammar to find what you're looking for; you can find it quickly; and when you've found it the explanations and examples are easy to understand and use. If, for example, you want to know (once and for all) the difference between "it's" and "its," you don't need to know the relevant parts of speech. Simply look under the heading "It's/Its." Longtime educator Rob Colter has also added sections covering topics such as source documentation, email, inclusive language, parallelism, ambiguity, and language simplification. The result is an indispensable grammar guide that should be in every Canadian's backpack, briefcase, or handbag. |
