5.0 out of 5 stars
Invaluable guide for speakers, teachers, and students alike,
By
This review is from: Longman Dictionary of Common Errors (Paperback)
Nigel Turton has brought clarity and concision to the English language for many years and this extensive dictionary common errors are ones you will hear throughout the year. It contains words and phrases that trigger confusion or where you wonder if what was said/written is wrong, and if so, is there a better way to phrase it. Each error has the correction and a simple explanation. What makes this dictionary invaluable is that it includes examples from a wide variety of countries, since Britain and the US aren't the only English-speaking countries. Moreover, you can take this book anywhere -- plane, waiting room, bathroom -- and read as much or little as time allows. Worth every penny. My only warning is that after reading the Longman Dictionary of Common Errors, you will cringe when you watch TV news and hear the newscasters and reporters' 7th grade educations on full display.
