ABSTRACT

When speaking or writing we are trying to put our thoughts into words. Without words we cannot think, and as we enlarge our vocabulary we improve our ability to express our thoughts. We speak and write so that we can tell others what we think, but if we use words incorrectly, or use words our readers do not understand, we shall be misunderstood. So we must take an interest in words, choose those we expect our readers to know, and try to use them correctly.
