Saying It Right: a Language Aid for Adults

After we become adults, our manner of speaking is more or less fixed. We do not expect to have our words corrected; that is, unless we have siblings. Brothers and sisters seem to feel free at any age to pounce on one another's grammar. The rest of us receive little if any instruction. Even our good friends refrain from offering help, fearing to hurt our feelings. So how can we grown-ups know how good our speech is, or how bad? That's where this little book comes in. It can be used for self-help, and there is something in it for everybody. Enjoy!
