I have just published my book on Amazon:
Words are neither effective nor ineffective; they just
impart different meanings to the sentences in which they are used. It is the
writer's effective use of words and phrases that makes sentences effective or
ineffective.
The English language is made up of nearly a million words
and phrases. A writer, especially one whose English is not his or her first
language, may face two major problems in writing: not knowing
"enough" words; and not knowing how to choose the "right"
words.
Writing is made up of words. Effective writing requires
having a good stock of vocabulary, as well as selecting the most suitable words
and phrases to express the ded ideas.
There are many English words and phrases that are
frequently confused and misused by ESL learners. This book provides hundreds of
those words and phrases with examples to show how they should be used correctly,
such as: advance and advancement; acceptance and acceptation;
accountable to and accountable for; acquirement and acquisition,
etc.
