How to Speak and Write Correctly
Joseph Devlin
Book Overview:
This is a guide for those who wish to learn how to correctly (though maybe not “properly”) create sentences, use figures of speech, write letters, and more, all while choosing the right words and doing it with style. Joseph Devlin’s words may not all be relevant still today, but at least it sounds good when it’s read aloud!

A sentence is an assemblage of words so arranged as to convey a determinate sense or meaning, in other words, to express a complete thought or idea. No matter how short, it must contain one finite verb and a subject or agent to direct the action of the verb.
"Birds fly;" "Fish swim;" "Men walk;"—are sentences.
A sentence always contains two parts, something spoken about and something said about it. The word or words indicating what is spoken about form what is called the subject and the word or words indicating what is said about it form what is called the predicate.
In the sentences given, birds, fish and men are the subjects, while fly, swim and walk are the predicates.
There are three kinds of sentences, simple, compound and complex.
The simple sentence expresses a single thought and consists of one subject and one predicate. . . Read More

Love it! A book that makes me realised the bad habits I had with English speaking and writing, not too late to change!
