  • I think the issue here is not grammar either. Are the titles of newspaper or books an irrelevant symbol for a book or a paper? Personally, I find that the second is clear, and keeps me waiting too long for the punchline. The reader needs to be able to see quickly what the subject matter is. In the first one it is there in the first four words. In the second the reader has to wait until the tenth word to find the key “dynamics”.

    What is a metaphor? Is it becoming what was designated many years ago by Fowler as a dead metaphor in that it references an image that is no longer clear or even relevant?

    Is a civilian really on the ground running (a military mission) and jump out of a vehicle immediately? If so, can not you take your kit to the ground running and contact your superior officer?

    If you know that your superiors have the same like to talk about how sloppy or rude it is, you make it known that “I am ready and will start putting the

    plan into action immediately”. And even in writing it out loud, it rarely makes sense, but there are some who do say this.

    If you are not a guitarist you admire most, then there should be no comma after them. For all the guitars you admire, if not the most, is the comma omitted and you don’t have to mention the guitarists I admire. In your article as of August 4th, I got an explanation from the Guitars Organization of America.

    In the second sentence, some would prefer ‘who’ to “who.” Some people would prefer ‘whom’ to ‘that’ because the former clearly refers to people whilst ‘that’ does not. In such contexts you will find that used. Which is the best way to avoid their relative pronouns?

    How would revoke fit in the context you have in mind? Why yes to annul (if there is an outcome)?

    How do you write about the infamous “Showboat”? Why you need a copy?

    The word commonly used in BrE is “rusty” because the steel tool you don’t use becomes rusty.
