From a Swedish Reader on Amazon.com

For many years, I have been searching for a well-written and well-structured book on English grammar, but only in vain. None of them met my expectations. Until now! Good's book is not only well written, it is also simple, lucid, and comprehensive....

This is truly an excellent book. No other book on the market is nearly as good as this one. I strongly recommend it to all people who want to improve their grammatical skills.

Misspelled Words

Misspelled words are a far more common error than most people like to admit. Even if you think your spelling is perfect, there are millions of documents out there in print and on the web riddled with spelling mistakes. Despite being in the age of the word processor with a spell-checker many people still misspell or misuse many words, reducing the effectiveness of their writing and making them seem less credible to their readers. Learning to spell perfectly is a much more valuable skill than many people think.

Imagine that you are handed a document to read over, a document either from someone who reports to you or from a manager. If there are Misspelled Words in this document, what does it make you think about the writer? One or two can be excused as hasty typos, but when at least one mistake appears in each paragraph, it can make reading the document annoying, and you will definitely think a lot less of the writer. When you send documents to others, how thoroughly do you check them for errors?

If you do not pay a lot of attention to your spelling because you have never been very good at it, then you are doing yourself a great disservice. People will judge you by the quality of your writing and if your documents have many misspelled words, you might get turned down for jobs or promotions, or fail to sell your product or services. At Grammar.com, just download GrammaRight and you will find a complete clickable dictionary of 1,175 Misspelled Words along with the correct ways of using them. This is an invaluable tool if you use the written word to communicate, or if you simply want to write better letters.

If words are your bread and butter, then you already know how important it is to make sure you spell correctly. Misspelled Words in a document that you produce will be scrutinized far more harshly, and you cannot afford to have any errors slip in.

If English is not your first language, then your trouble will most likely come from misused words. English words have many synonyms, and it is easy to misuse these words under the assumption that you are writing a good piece of English. Misused and Misspelled Words go hand-in-hand, and if you are writing anything, it is your responsibility to ensure that it is error free. After all, it is your name at the bottom of that piece of paper, so you want to make sure that everything on it is perfect. There is simply no room for Misspelled Words in business writing, job applications, sales copy, resumes, in-office memoranda, emails, or any other kind of writing.
