More Misused Words

<p>More Misused Words contains a lot of the same words that Misused Words I and II did but so much more. In More Misused Words we address even more redundancies absolutes capitals eponyms flat adverbs (everybody’s favorite) initialisms and acronyms Latin abbreviations mispronunciations a couple of sticklers like lie/lay/laid/lain and poisonous/venomous plurals of compound words (is it mothers-in-law or mother-in-laws? Isn’t one sufficient?) time-consuming phrases and punctuation. <br />We’ll have fun tackling these words (they’re not that big) and we’ll address more than just words—we’ll hit on eponyms odd punctuation and even a few Latin expressions such as e.g. ergo etc. and i.e. (Did I just say ‘ergo’? If I do that again smack me.) </p><p>I know you think you are familiar with these but despite their ubiquitousness (Smack me for that also.) there might be a few odd rules that pertain to using Latin expressions that you’re not familiar with. It’s worthwhile to learn them (especially if you intend to write).  </p>
