About the book

The Cambridge Guide to English Usage provides an indispensable new A-Z reference to English usage for the twenty-first century. It covers more than 4000 points of word meaning, spelling, punctuation, grammar and style on which students, teachers, writers and editors regularly require guidance. It also addresses larger issues of inclusive language, and effective writing and argument, and provides guidance on grammatical terminology. Based on large international corpora, it differentiates clearly between US, UK, Canadian and Australian usage and offers up-to-date, objective advice presented in readable, accessible terms.
