Hardback. Zustand: Good. As the author of the Word Court columns that appear in The Atlantic Monthly, Barbara Wallraff is one of America's most widely read and beloved writers on language. Now, in Your Own Words, Wallraff guides the reader through a variety of intriguing questions about English-and simultaneously explains how you, too, can be a language expert.

Hardback. Zustand: Good. By the author of the Atlantic Monthly's highly popular column Word Court, the most engaging grammar guide of our time, with all the authority of Strunk and White and all the fun of Woe Is I. The Judge Judy of Grammar was born when the Atlantic Monthly's Barbara Wallraff began answering grammar questions on America Online. This vibrant exchange became the magazine's bimonthly Word Court, and eventually the bestselling hardcover book, Word Court. In Word Court, Wallraff moves beyond her column to tackle common and uncommon items, establishing rules for such issues as turns of phrase, slang, name usage, punctuation, and newly coined vocabulary.

Should you use like or as-and when? The result is a warmly humorous, reassuring, and brilliantly perceptive tour of how and why we speak the way we do.…
