Page 20 - Perfect English Grammar: The Indispensable Guide to Excellent Writing and Speaking
P. 20
11.Throughout this book, I recommend consulting a dictionary. Consider
using two dictionaries from different publishers. Each dictionary has
its own strengths. Be sure to use dictionaries from well-known
publishers, as off-brand dictionaries tend to be out-of-date and less
thorough. See my recommendations in the Further Reading section
(here).
12.Use the style guide preferred by your organization, school, teacher,
or industry and stick with it. Well-known style guides sometimes
disagree on specifics. In this book, I give guidelines that will,
generally, work for everyday writing for school and work.
13.Use the table of contents and the glossary. This is not only a
browsable book, but also one that can be used for easy lookups.
