Hotchpotch Affair , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 498min
Don’t buy this audiobook if you are in a hurry! It will certainly be a pity, a waste of time and money. You need to take some respite to join me inside. Once you enter, you’ll either enjoy it or you won't; the soul of my kindred will reveal properly. This life story is the direct effect of voodoo damnation, pending between the semicolons of one granted wish and the vision of an oracle. I wished to be loved, then I was told by a fortune-teller that this year is the last of my life. If you hate me when you finish this audiobook, it certainly means I have a chance to live longer. That’s an extremely abulic situation, but I got used to it. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Michael Reaves. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/186440/bk_acx0_186440_sample.mp3.

The Glamour of Grammar , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 535min
Early in the history of English, glamour and grammar were the same word, linked to enchantment and magical spells. Now grammar brings to mind language bullies and bored-out-of-their-skulls students. Roy Peter Clark, one of America’s most influential writing teachers, wants to change that by putting the glamour back into grammar. Whether you are composing a novel, a memo, an e-mail, or a blog post, you can immediately apply any of the lessons Clark lays out in 50 short chapters. Covering everything from the parts of speech to why effective writers prefer concrete nouns and active verbs, Clark teaches you how to use periods, commas, and semicolons to their fullest advantage; befriend the lively verb "to be"; avoid “hyper-grammar”; properly place those tricky modifiers; and harness other secrets of powerful prose. Above all, he teaches you how to master grammar to perfect your use of English, to hone meaning, and to charm through your writing. In a world where we communicate more and more through emails and text messages, how you use language matters - even in 140 characters. The Glamour of Grammar prepares you to captivate with every word. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Roy Peter Clark.

Snails & Monkey Tails
"There are countless books that can teach you the alphabet, but almost none that focus on the tiny designs that run interference among the letterforms: those easily overlooked punctuation and typographic symbols. These symbols, as Michael Arndt proves in this beautiful and endlessly fascinating book, are absolutely indispensable to communication: punctuation turns words into sentences and language into meaning... From commas to semicolons, from slashes to asterisks, from guillemets to octothorpes (named, perhaps, after athlete Jim Thorpe), you'll never look at punctuation the same way again."-Michael Bierut, partner, PentagramIn this show-stopping guide with more than 75 uniquely designed two-color spreads-a rollicking linguistic ride for fans of Eats, Shoots & Leaves and Just My Type-award-winning graphic designer Michael Arndt explores the typographic origins, names, and shapes of both common punctuation marks and symbols, as well as the proper and diverse usage of each.From the period to the question mark, the semicolon to the em dash, symbols and marks are an integral part of language. In graphically engaging spreads that utilize typography in an innovative way, Snails & Monkey Tails examines the evolution of these mighty linguistic tools-from the punctum, or point, created by an ancient scribe to the guillemet, used most commonly in lieu of quote marks by the French (and named in honor of a typographer Guillaume Le Bé). With verve and insight, Michael Arndt explains their proper usage and how they came to be universally accepted today. Snails & Monkey Tails-Snails (@); Monkey Tails (&)-is packed with intriguing facts, history, stories, and lore, as well as grammar, explaining it clearly and with examples. What is the purpose of the comma-perhaps the most used symbol in the English language-and what are the proper uses of the asterisk? Do quote marks go inside or outside punctuation? What about a quote within a quote-a quote from someone quoting someone else? How much space goes on either side of an ellipsis? What's the difference between an en-dash and an em-dash? Complete with a listing of useful terms and clear diagrams for creating typographical marks and symbols correctly on both PC and Apple computers, Snails & Monkey Tails is essential for bibliophiles, writers, grammarians, graphic designers, typography enthusiasts, logophiles, and anyone with a passion for the written word.- Shop: buecher
