"Mistakes Writing English and How to Avoid Them" is a text authored by Marshall T. Bigelow and is intended as an instructional guide to the improvement of one's English skills. "With the exception of Wordsworth, there is not one celebrated author of this day who has written two pages consecutively without some flagrant impropriety in the grammar." It is this quote that Bigelow chooses to open his work with, a quote that demonstrates the state of the English language, at least as interpreted by some authors. The purpose of "Mistakes Writing English and How to Avoid Them" is to offer teachers and scholars a guide to improving their English by demonstrating some of the most common grammatical errors. The book is divided into easily digestible sections, each of which handles a different grammatical concept. Topics covered include the proper use of the article, pronouns and antecedents, the infinitive mood, use of the participle, conjunctions, prepositions, and much more. A three-part appendix sees several additional topics discussed, and the book is concluded by an index. Marshall T. Bigelow has created a thorough and accessible guide to improving one's English. The book is not intended to be a completely exhaustive overview of grammar, but rather an examination of the most common errors of the language. Many of the examples provided were lifted directly from texts that Bigelow has been responsible for editing, and demonstrate that even professional writers are not immune from making grammatical errors. "Mistakes Writing English and How to Avoid Them" is the sort of book that can benefit everybody that endeavors to read it. For individuals interested in learning how to avoid common errors and become a better writer, Marshall T. Bigelow's guide is essential. Clearly written and well presented, this work is highly recommended. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Common Errors in Speaking and Writing and How to Avoid Them: A Series of Exercises, With Notes, Cautions and Suggestion; For the Use of Teachers, Pupils and Private Students My attention was first called to this book by the mere mention of its title in the Academy, Having long been in search of a good book of the kind for myself, and for many other teachers who had consulted me, I procured a copy; and the result was that I at once urged upon my friends, Messrs. D. C. Heath & Co., its republication in this country, with a confident assurance that it would furnish a valuable aid in the teaching of English just where such aid is most needed, - that is, in the practical test and application of those rules of right usage which are taught so much too much, yet so little verified and applied, in the habitual school-teaching. Being thus in a certain sense responsible for the book, I could not deny the duty of saying a word in its behalf; yet the author's own preface is so clear and so sufficient, with regard to its purpose and its right use, that he has left nothing for me to say. Teachers who will examine it will not, I think, need the assurance of the preface to the fifth edition, that it is fitted for wide usefulness in many schools. Indeed, one of its chief recommendations is that it is adapted to use with any English grammar, or without any at all; and that, within quite an extensive range of skilfully shaped exercises, suited for different grades, it appeals always to the intelligent judgment, without reference to any given rule. If this word from me, who have now for many years felt the want of just such a help for myself and for others, should contribute to secure even the examination of this little book, I should feel I had done, vicariously, a real service to what I regard as in itself the most difficult, and in its results usually the most unsatisfactory, branch of school work.

Excerpt from Five Hundred Mistakes of Daily Occurrence in Speaking, Pronouncing, and Writing the English Language, Corrected This book is offered to the public, not to be classed with elaborate or learned works, nor expected, like some of its more pretending companions among the offspring of the press, to run the gauntlet of literary criticism. It was prepared to meet the wants of persons - numbered by multitudes in even the most intelligent and refined communities - who from deficiency of education, or from carelessness of manner, are in the habit of misusing many of the most common words of the English language, distorting its grammatical forms, destroying its beauty, and corrupting its purity.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1886 edition. Excerpt: ... chapter xvii. conjunctions. 83. Beginning paragraphs or sentences with conjunctions should be avoided. The conjunctions and, nor, or, and others strictly connective, are often needlessly thus made to begin a sentence, more especially and. In many cases, the and is useless and may be omitted, and where it is necessary the sentence can often be joined with the preceding one. A disjunctive, like but, may sometimes be necessary at the beginning of the sentence, and in an animated or easy style it is perhaps unobjectionable to begin one with and. It is not easy to give examples, without taking up too much space, as whole sentences would be required to show the connection. Any one can find plenty of examples in his every-day reading, and can judge for himself as to their propriety or impropriety. 84. The words reason and because should not be used together, the word because meaning "for that reason," and thus being redundant; as, "Because That Rousseau had given an equally beautiful picture was no reason why Goethe should not repeat it." "The other will fail, not for any apparent reason but because except that the one loves the child from the beginning." "The reasons of appeal were because that the consent of the parents had not been obtained." "The renson I ask you to do this is because that you can do it so much better than I." 85. Other common errors in the use of conjunctions are the following. Without for unless, but for; as, "Without Unless the grammatical form of.a word can be recognized at a glance, little progress can be made in reading the language." "You will never live to my age without you keep yourself in breath with exercise." "This veteran of forty campaigns would have fallen into the enemy's hands without...
