introduction

Collins Websters Easy Learning How to Use English is designed for anyone who wants to improve their ability to use English accurately. Whether you are preparing for an exam, or you are curious about how a particular word is used, or you simply want a quick guide to common mistakes and how to correct them, Collins Websters Easy Learning How to Use English offers you the information you require in a clear and accessible format.

This book focuses on words and structures that often cause problems. Here are some examples of the kinds of problems that are covered:

words that are easily confused. For example, hard and hardly look similar, but they have very different meanings.

words that have similar meanings but are used in different grammatical ways. For example, allow and let have the same meaning, but we allow someone to do something, whereas we let someone do something.

common words that have a lot of different meanings in English, such as take, at, and better.

words that are used with particular prepositions, for example, look for and look after; made from, made of, and made out of.

common false friends: English words that look similar to words in other languages, but have different meanings.

You will also find information on which uses are more suitable for formal English (for example, when writing essays) and which ones are more suitable for informal English (for example, when writing emails or in everyday conversation). In addition, there are notes on some of the differences between British English and American English.

Collins Websters Easy Learning How to Use English is arranged alphabetically, so that you can easily find what you are looking for. There are also ten topic sections at the end, where some sets of words and structures are covered together.
