Publisher's Synopsis
Updated for 2023. Revised with more examples and even clearer explanations.
As far as vocabulary is concerned, mastering English is not so much about learning more and more new words, let alone lists of words that one may never meet again in a lifetime; it is more about better mastering the common words that are first introduced at beginner level, but play a vital role in all written and spoken communication - from the most simple conversational English to the most complex formal writing.
It is a reality of short common words that they often have multiple meanings and different uses.
This book explains in clear detail the grammar and usage of over fifty of the most frequently used and confused words in English. Common little words like as, so, ever, there and enough, with their different meanings and usages, can be a constant source of problems and mistakes for learners of English and in many cases for native speakers too.
