Produktbeschreibung
Pure Saxon English: Or Americans To The Front is a book written by Elias Molee and originally published in 1890. The book is a guide to the proper use of the English language, specifically advocating for the use of ""pure Saxon English"" over the more Latin-based vocabulary that had become popular in the United States at the time. Molee argues that the English language should be simple and straightforward, with words that are easy to understand and pronounce. He believes that the use of Latin-based words and phrases unnecessarily complicates the language and makes it more difficult for people to communicate effectively. The book provides numerous examples of words and phrases that Molee believes should be replaced with simpler, more straightforward alternatives. He also includes a section on grammar and syntax, with tips for constructing clear and concise sentences. Overall, Pure Saxon English: Or Americans To The Front is a fascinating look at the evolution of the English language in the United States, as well as a valuable guide for anyone looking to improve their communication skills.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
