This easy A-to-Z reference guide offers essential information on English grammar as well as practical advice on avoiding common mistakes. A thorough understanding of English grammar is essential for anyone who wishes to communicate clearly and confidently. A Concise Dictionary of Correct English offers readers a detailed overview of English usage, provided in a quick-reference alphabetical format. From the rules of "Abbreviations" and "Accents" to the proper deployment of "Would" versus "Should", this thorough and accessible volume is an ideal resource for improving one's grasp of English.

This book is intended for those who would like to brush up their English grammar and be guided round some of the more common pitfalls in the use of English. It is hoped that those who find the book useful may be led on to a study of those much greater works to which all students of English usage are indebted, and from which I have often and gratefully drawn: Eric Partridge’s Usage and Abusage, Fowler’s Modern English Usage, and Gowers’ Complete Plain Words (revised by Fraser) which, though initially commissioned to improve Civil Service English, remains perhaps the best guide to correct English for the general reader.

Many of the entries in the following pages require the reader to have a working knowledge of the principal parts of speech. Victims of the regrettable failure of English schools, during the past fifteen years or so, to supply this knowledge are invited to begin their perusal of this book by studying the entries under verb, noun, adverb, adjective, pronoun, preposition and conjunction, together with those under sentence and clause.
