a good reminder against common linguistic faux pas(ses?).

Naughty nouns, vexing verbs, annoying adjectives, perplexing pronouns-Bryson presents an amusing look at which words of this already confusing language are most confusing. Essential for the word nerd!

Even writing a serious subject Bill still does it entertainingly. It's fun to read and doesn't feel like reading a text book and such.
