FRONT_1 Introduction
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
It is one thing to use language; it is quite another to
understand how it works.
(Anthony Burgess, Joysprick)
English usage is a subject as wide as the English language itself. By far
the greater part of usage, however, raises no controversies and poses no
problems for native speakers of English, just because it is their natural
idiom. But there are certain limited areas --particular sounds, spellings,
words, and constructions--about which there arises uncertainty,
difficulty, or disagreement. The proper aim of a usage guide is to resolve
these problems, rather than describe the whole of current usage.
The Oxford Guide to English Usage has this aim. Within the limits just
indicated, it offers guidance in as clear, concise, and systematic a
manner as possible. In effecting its aims it makes use of five special
features, explained below.
1. Layout. In the Guide the subject of usage is divided into four fields:
word formation, pronunciation, vocabulary, and grammar. Each field is
covered by a separate section of the book, and each of the four
sections has its own alphabetical arrangement of entries. Each entry
is headed by its title in bold type. All the words that share a
particular kind of spelling, sound, or construction can therefore be
treated together. This makes for both economy and comprehensiveness
of treatment. Note that Pronunciation is in two parts: A deals with
the pronunciation of particular letters, or groups of letters, while B
is an alphabetical list of words whose pronunciation gives trouble.
