Get Ahead in Spelling [Hardcover - Used]

A lively and practical guide to making spelling easy, this book aims to help you improve your spelling skills as well as understand the reasons for your spelling problems and learn how to deal with them. In two sections - one giving step-by-step guidance on how to help yourself, and the other a quick-reference section - it is user-friendly and designed to make an often-forbidding subject readable. It includes information on words of foreign origin, using a dictionary effectively, using a spell-checker, knowing your spelling weaknesses, coping with confusables, debunking spelling myths, British and American English differences and capitalization, and includes boxes of confused spellings, as well as lists of word endings (eg -able or -ible, -acy or -asy) and noun and verb spellings, proper nouns, silent consonants.
