Excerpt from Expressive English It is often held to be a sufficient description or definition of language to speak of it as "a medium of communication among intelligent beings." Language is that, indeed, and can never be less than that. But that is its lowest office. The hen calls her brood by a glad cluck to a fine bit of grain, or warns them by a terrifying note of the sweep of a hawk. But she has soon gone round the circle of ideas appropriate to her species, and the "medium of communication" has no place in the realm beyond, where for her and hers there is nothing to communicate. In all human beings, however, except the most degraded, there is a demand for communication of thought and feeling from one to another beyond what language as used by them can yet convey. With all mental advance the reach and range and delicacy of thought and feeling evermore outstrip the capacity of words to utter them. Language is under a constant impulsion to express ideas and emotions which are still beyond its power. It is true that a decaying civilization may shrivel up, as it were, within a language, until it has no use for many words and phrases which were full of meaning to men of a nobler day. Such a language is in process of becoming a "dead language," as the Greek and Latin were becoming in Europe five centuries ago.

Excerpt from Expressive English Foremost in colonization, at the front in industrial and commercial achievement, possessed by that impulse Of actual doing in the concrete world which we call practical, full of the enthusiasm Of freedom for each individual life, and yet with that power of combination that can cement millions scattered far over land and sea into the cohesion Of an empire or a world-republic, spoken by more human beings than any other tongue now or in ages past existing among men, the number Of persons using it being credibly estimated at one hundred and fifty millions, the English language must beyond all others seek and attain fulness Of expression. It presses close up to the foremost line of the world's advance, to be ever ready with a new word or phrase for every new thought, discovery, invention, or achieve ment. Voices from every range Of human endeavor and every outreach Of human intellect are calling the lan guage on to express - express - express, ever more com prehensively and minutely all the shades and lines of thought and feeling, now plain and direct as a concrete highway, now toilsomely ascending as a mountain path, or yet again diversified with flower and shrub and rock and light and shade and sudden windings as a wood land road. Its ideal of utterance has come 'to be, not method, measure, melody, but meaning. Fine writ ing, once the ideal Of many young writers, is now disesteemed. The best speaking or writing of English will be done always by asking What do I really mean to say? Or What do I most deeply want to say? In other phrase, What for my purpose can words now and here best express? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

An indispensable guide to essential principles of English grammar and usage Stellar English lays out the fundamentals of effective writing, from word choice and punctuation to parts of speech and common errors. Frank Cioffi emphasizes how formal written English—though only a subdialect of the language—enables writers to reach a wide and heterogenous audience. Cioffi’s many example sentences illustrating grammatical principles tilt in an otherworldly direction, making up a science fiction story involving alien invasion. Reading the book through will not only help you with your grammar but also reveal how the story ends! An invaluable brief handbook for native and nonnative speakers alike, Stellar English avoids the jargon and emphasis on outdated rules found in typical grammar guides and shows how good writing uses carefully constructed language that’s at once appropriate to an audience and communicates—without distractions or confusion—just what the writer wants.
