HOW TO WRITE CLEARLY. RULES AND EXERCISES ON ENGLISH COMPOSITION

M.A. REV. EDWIN A. ABBOTT

PREFACE.

Almost every English boy can be taught to write clearly, so far at least as clearness depends upon the arrangement of words. Force, elegance, and variety of style are more difficult to teach, and far more difficult to learn; but clear writing can be reduced to rules. To teach the art of writing clearly is the main object of these Rules and Exercises.

Ambiguity may arise, not only from bad arrangement, but also from other causes--from the misuse of single words, and from confused thought. These causes are not removable by definite rules, and therefore, though not neglected, are not prominently considered in this book. My object rather is to point out some few continually recurring causes of ambiguity, and to suggest definite remedies in each case. Speeches in Parliament, newspaper narratives and articles, and, above all, resolutions at public meetings, furnish abundant instances of obscurity arising from the monotonous neglect of some dozen simple rules.

The art of writing forcibly is, of course, a valuable acquisition--almost as valuable as the art of writing clearly. But forcible expression is not, like clear expression, a mere question of mechanism and of the manipulation of words; it is a much higher power, and implies much more.

SAT Vocabulary FlashCards

Product Description
==============

This Kindle book contains 352 words, meanings, and for most words, memorable sentence fragments exactly as used in our powerful Super IQ 7 Mind Machine based SAT Vocab Builder system (details at www.MindMachineLab.com/sat.htm).

Each word is repeated on two pages:
• On first page, the word appears (with occasional British spelling, too)
• On second page, the word appears again with meaning and for most words also a short sentence fragment for remembering easily

First see the word along on first page, and after trying to recall the meaning and sentence fragment, go to the next page.

The words are given in bold.

We have used the US spellings. The British spelling of a word, when different from the US spelling, is given in bracket after BRITISH as shown for the word fervor below.

fervor (BRITISH = fervour)
