Gyles Brandreth 
Have You Eaten Grandma? 

Ajutor

Pedantic about punctuation or scrupulous about spelling? You”ll love this hilarious and definitive guide to 21st century language from grammar-guru Gyles Brandreth
”Brilliant, clear, entertaining, very funny and often outright silly. Brandreth excels . . . in all his linguistic joie de vivre” Guardian
__________
Why, like, does everyone keep saying ”like”?
Why do apostrophe”s keep turning up in the wrong place?
Why do we get confused when using foreign phrases – and vice versa?
Is it ”may be” or ”maybe”? Should it be ”past” or ”passed”? Is it ”referenda” or ”referendums”?
FFS, what”s happening to our language!?
Our language is changing, literacy levels are dwindling and our grasp of grammar is at crisis point, so you wouldn”t be alone in thinking WTF! But do not despair, Have You Eaten Grandma? is here: Gyles Brandreth”s definitive (and hilarious) guide to punctuation, spelling, and good English for the twenty-first century.
Without hesitation or repetition (and just a touch of deviation) Gyles, the Just A Minute regular and self-confessed grammar guru, skewers the linguistic horrors of our time, tells us where we”ve been going wrong (and why), and reveals his tips and tricks to ensure that, in future, we make fewer (rather than ”less”) mistakes. End of.
(Is ”End of” alright? Is ”alright” all right? You”ll find out right here . . . )
”Best thing ever, laugh-a-lot, spanning everything. Great book, I”m loving this” Chris Evans, BBC Radio 2
