Description

The slow development of the use of English since Middle English has recently become a torrent of inappropriate uses of old words that had precise meanings. The true meanings of many words are becoming lost in the rush to sound up to date and trendy. Specific words have become generalised to the point, sometimes, of losing their actual meaning in the pursuit of vogue expressions.

This little book is an attempt to highlight some of these common abuses with ridicule and, perhaps, sensitise its readers to these solecisms and abuses to which it is easy to become inured. So, going forward, very clearly we need to hold hands on this one and sing from the same hymn sheet in another Ball Park and create a new perspective on words and phrase that resonate with all of us and pressure the community at every level when we head out to go on a journey at the end of the day.
