Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is the first systematic attempt to unravel the complexities of English compounding. The author, a scholar of English in its various forms, discovered that prior rules promulgated for compounding all proved practically worthless, mainly because they were not based upon any real synthetic principles. The author presents a reasoned series of rules and illustrations to provide guidance in creating approximate consistency in word-joining. The work is particularly suited to the needs of printers and compositors, but is also valuable to authors, proof-readers, stenographers, teachers, and, in fact, all educated persons who care about writing correct English. The author includes a critique of noted language teachers for their dissemination of misinformation, and discusses methods for creating solid-word forms, hyphenated compounds, and indispensable joining of adjective and noun. This book gives readers a wealth of information on how to write and print words in English so as to create clear, consistent, and correct communication. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9780282192853_0
