Sarcastic editing advice from the experts. By Proofer T. Washington. World geography changes with the political tide. Writers must take special care to use current geopolitical references so as not to offend or to seem out of touch.

Sarcastic editing advice from the experts. Author Archives: Proofer T. Washington. By Proofer T. Washington. Good business writing avoids adverbs and is exact, clinical, and bereft of individual personality. For example, never use an ambiguous lay term like “daily.” The proper, precise, professional phrasing is “on a serial 24-hour basis.”. By Proofer T. Washington. For example, references to those serial roadside Burma-Shave ads should now be referred to as “Myanmar-Shave Ads.”.

Language, Logic, and Correctness. In “Why Descriptivists Are Usage Liberals”. I said that there some logical problems with declaring something to be right or wrong based on evidence. A while back I explored this problem in a piece titled “ What Makes It Right? Over on Visual Thesaurus. As I said on Visual Thesaurus, all attempts to answer these questions run into a fundamental logical problem: just because something is. Doesn’t mean it ought to be. But things get even murkier when we try to apply this sa...

You Are Not Dr. Seuss. Tags: Dr. Seuss. Green Eggs and Ham. A couple of weeks ago, Nancy Friedman. Tweeted a link to an article. About Netflix’s forthcoming adaptation of Green Eggs and Ham. And sadly but predictably, whoever wrote the press release about the announcement felt compelled to write in Seussian verse, despite having no idea how to do so. Here’s the official press release. And here’s the poem—and I use the term loosely—in all its terrible glory:. Issued from Netflix headquarters. I have to ad...
Relative Pronoun Redux | Arrant Pedantry
http://www.arrantpedantry.com/2012/12/24/relative-pronoun-redux
A couple of weeks ago, Geoff Pullum wrote on Lingua Franca. Rule, which he calls “a rule which will live in infamy”. (For my own previous posts on the subject, see here. He runs through the whole gamut of objections to the rule—that the rule is an invention, that it started as a suggestion and became canonized as grammatical law, that it has “an ugly clutch of exceptions”, that great writers (including E. B. White himself) have long used restrictive which. Sounds like a good thing to me. Just because...

http://www.arrantpedantry.com/2015/03/04/why-descriptivists-are-usage-liberals
Why Descriptivists Are Usage Liberals. Outside of linguistics, the people who care most about language tend to be prescriptivists—editors, writers, English teachers, and so on—while linguists and lexicographers are descriptivists. “Descriptive, not prescriptive! 8221; is practically the linguist rallying cry. But we linguists have done a terrible job of explaining just what that means and why it matters. As I tried to explain in “ What Descriptivism Is and Isn’t. For lack of a better term. (Not becau...

Book Review: But Can I Start a Sentence with “But”? Tags: But Can I Start a Sentence with But? Chicago Manual of Style. University of Chicago Press. Disclosure: I received a free copy of this book from the University of Chicago Press. I have to admit that I was a little skeptical when I heard that the University of Chicago Press was putting out a collection of questions and answers from the popular Chicago Style Q&A. If we told you to put two periods, would you do it? My library shelves are full. I n...
