New to this Edition:

  • The structure of entries has been revised, with clearer typographic conventions incorporated, making it as easy to use as possible
  • The two-colour format of early editions has been reintroduced, increasing the ease of navigation
  • Sample sentences have been fully revised, replacing those that were out of date, simplifying where possible, and adding new ones where needed
  • The introduction has been revised to introduce the concepts of grammatical form and grammatical function, and how they are distinguished

     
The Oxford A-Z of Grammar and Punctuation offers accessible and coherent explanations across a broad range of topics, and is an excellent first port of call for any reader seeking clear, authoritative help with grammar and punctuation. Incorporating hundreds of examples of real usage taken from the Oxford English Corpus, this handy volume contains more than 300 alphabetically-arranged entries, including standard grammatical terms such as active voiceconjunction, pronounsynonym, and transitive verb. It also discusses related questions of usage, including how to distinguish between 'may or might', 'that or which', and 'it's or its'. Over 30 feature entries on major headwords like adverb, clause, and spelling include diagrams listing related terms.
   
The A-Z has been fully revised and updated, and the structure and approach has been revisited to improve its accessibility, including clearer typographical conventions, and the reintroduction of the easy-to-use two-colour format found in early editions. Major headwords have been made (where possible) shorter and easier to navigate, and all sample sentences have been revised, replacing those that are out of date and adding new ones where needed. Readers of all levels will find this volume to be an essential tool for writing at home, in the office, at school, and at college.
