Ebook: 130 Mistakes Students do (Oh, Sorry!) Make

Self Published. 2010. 32 pages130 наиболее часто встречаемых случаев неверного словоупотребления с указанием правильного варианта.Mistakes and students go together. Otherwise, pupils would be teachers. English – a language of few infallible rules – is fertile land for blunders and I have been listening to and committing them for years. One day I started to keep a list of the most common slips and ended up with around three hundred. After eliminating the least frequent I listed the remainder, which you’ll find below.Even though I have strived to include the most common errors this list is – as many others – arbitrary. I therefore apologise to those faults who feel their prevalence makes them belong here and to those who are in but consider themselves exceptional and would rather join another club. In or out? Coffee or dinner? Kiss now or later? Lips or cheek? Decisions and missteps are, I’m afraid, the stuff of life. Though the fewer you make the easier it will be to impress that girl or lad tonight. Yours or mine?This book has two parts. The first includes correct and incorrect examples. The second shows which ones are right.- Andrew D. Miles
