say it better in english: Dreyer's English Benjamin Dreyer, 2020-08-04 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A sharp, funny grammar guide they’ll actually want to read, from Random House’s longtime copy chief and one of Twitter’s leading language gurus NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY O: The Oprah Magazine • Paste • Shelf Awareness “Essential (and delightful!)”—People We all write, all the time: books, blogs, emails. Lots and lots of emails. And we all want to write better. Benjamin Dreyer is here to help. As Random House’s copy chief, Dreyer has upheld the standards of the legendary publisher for more than two decades. He is beloved by authors and editors alike—not to mention his followers on social media—for deconstructing the English language with playful erudition. Now he distills everything he has learned from the myriad books he has copyedited and overseen into a useful guide not just for writers but for everyone who wants to put their best prose foot forward. As authoritative as it is amusing, Dreyer’s English offers lessons on punctuation, from the underloved semicolon to the enigmatic en dash; the rules and nonrules of grammar, including why it’s OK to begin a sentence with “And” or “But” and to confidently split an infinitive; and why it’s best to avoid the doldrums of the Wan Intensifiers and Throat Clearers, including “very,” “rather,” “of course,” and the dreaded “actually.” Dreyer will let you know whether “alright” is all right (sometimes) and even help you brush up on your spelling—though, as he notes, “The problem with mnemonic devices is that I can never remember them.” And yes: “Only godless savages eschew the series comma.” Chockful of advice, insider wisdom, and fun facts, this book will prove to be invaluable to everyone who wants to shore up their writing skills, mandatory for people who spend their time editing and shaping other people’s prose, and—perhaps best of all—an utter treat for anyone who simply revels in language. Praise for Dreyer’s English “Playful, smart, self-conscious, and personal . . . One encounters wisdom and good sense on nearly every page of Dreyer’s English.”—The Wall Street Journal “Destined to become a classic.”—The Millions “Dreyer can help you . . . with tips on punctuation and spelling. . . . Even better: He’ll entertain you while he’s at it.”—Newsday |

say it better in english: How to Talk About Books You Haven't Read Pierre Bayard, 2010-08-10 In this delightfully witty, provocative book, literature professor and psychoanalyst Pierre Bayard argues that not having read a book need not be an impediment to having an interesting conversation about it.

Using examples from such writers as Graham Greene, Oscar Wilde, Montaigne, and Umberto Eco, he describes the varieties of non-reading-from books that you've never heard of to books that you've read and forgotten-and offers advice on how to turn a sticky social situation into an occasion for creative brilliance. Practical, funny, and thought-provoking, How to Talk About Books You Haven't Read-which became a favorite of readers everywhere in the hardcover edition-is in the end a love letter to books, offering a whole new perspective on how we read and absorb them. |

say it better in english: The Better Angels of Our Nature Steven Pinker, 2011-10-04 “If I could give each of you a graduation present, it would be this—the most inspiring book I've ever read. —Bill Gates (May, 2017) Selected by The New York Times Book Review as a Notable Book of the Year The author of Rationality and Enlightenment Now offers a provocative and surprising history of violence. Faced with the ceaseless stream of news about war, crime, and terrorism, one could easily think we live in the most violent age ever seen. Yet as New York Times bestselling author Steven Pinker shows in this startling and engaging new work, just the opposite is true: violence has been diminishing for millenia and we may be living in the most peaceful time in our species's existence. For most of history, war, slavery, infanticide, child abuse, assassinations, programs, gruesom punishments, deadly quarrels, and genocide were ordinary features of life. But today, Pinker shows (with the help of more than a hundred graphs and maps) all these forms of violence have dwindled and are widely condemned. How has this happened? This groundbreaking book continues Pinker's exploration of the esesnce of human nature, mixing psychology and history to provide a remarkable picture of an increasingly nonviolent world. The key, he explains, is to understand our intrinsic motives--the inner demons that incline us toward violence and the better angels that steer us away--and how changing circumstances have allowed our better angels to prevail. Exploding fatalist myths about humankind's inherent violence and the curse of modernity, this ambitious and provocative book is sure to be hotly debated in living rooms and the Pentagon alike, and will challenge and change the way we think about our society. |

For some, it is impossible especially for the 29% of Americans who are functionally illiterate. But what if the problem is not the language itself, but the rules we were taught?

(text only, no illustration) Tables Of Contents Title Page Body Content Copyright (30 pages in approx. print length) Preview [Year, 20XX, Month, YY, Date, ZZ, 05:00:00] [Power saving mode has been broken down] [The system will operate normally in 5 seconds] [5] [4] [3] [2] [1] Beep. Mark's eyes opened wide. Mark turned off the heat mode, carefully laid IhRah, who slept with her cheek on her chest, and he covered her with a blanket up to her chin. He came out of the main room in a quiet mode and started cleaning the bathroom first. It was 6 a.m. when He finished cleaning the bathroom, living room, and small room. A small vibration was detected in the living room. It was the sound of the L0909's power saving mode being turned off. L0909 came to Mark as soon as it worked and started a quarrel as always. [Kid, give me the rice.] The L0909 is a very wicked robot. He was so absorbed in pretending to be a puppy that he asked for a food although he couldn't digest food. Of course, Mark was preparing a meal in the kitchen again today, spilling L0909's words with one ear. L0909 was busily walking around under Mark's feet and pretending to be cute. Exactly 7:30 a.m., Mark set the food on the table, opened the main room door, and turned on the light. With one of his feet out of the blanket, he approached IhRah, who was sleeping upside down, and he set an alarm. Papa papa papa papa papa papa papa papa papa papa papa papaPapa papa papa papa papa papa papa papa IhRah frowned and said without opening her eyes. I'm up. Good morning, IhRah. Turn it off. The statistics show that IhRah wakes up completely when she hears this alarm for two minutes. IhRah raised her upper body without opening her eyes and hit Mark's forearm. However, Mark did not bother to turn off the alarm set to 2 minutes. The Morning meal is ready. If you don't start breakfast now, your chances of being late for work increase by 10 percent. IhRah opened her eyes half-way and looked at Mark. Kid, I don't want to hear this alarm. Can you change it to something else? As I said last time, IhRah reacts quickly only if it's something she doesn't like. If you change to another alarm, you must move up the alarm time.
