For the last couple of years I have sent a round-robin email to mycolleagues at this newspaper every few weeks pointing out to them mistakes thatwe make in our use of the English language. Happily, these are reasonably rare.The emails have been circulated on the Internet - and are now available on thepapers website - and one of them ended up in the inbox of a publisher atRandom House about this time last year, He asked me whether I would write abook not just on what constituted correct English, but also why it matters. Theformer is relatively easy to do, once one has armed oneself with the OxfordEnglish Dictionary (OED) and some reputable grammar books by way ofresearch materials. The latter, being a matter for debate, is less straightforward. Isuppose my own interest in language started at school. Having studied French,Latin and Greek, I saw clearly how those languages had exported words into ourown. When I studied German later on. I could see even more clearly why it wasthe sister tongue and what an enormous impact it had had on English. I saw thatwords had specific meanings and that, for the avoidance of doubt, it was best touse them in the correct way. Most of all, I became fascinated by grammar, andespecially by the logic that drove it and that was common to all the otherlanguages I knew.

Was the ambiguity in a certain order of words deliberate or accidental?The whole question of communication is rooted in such things. For the secondpart of my degree I specialized in the history of the English language, studyinghow words had changed their meaning and how grammar had evolved.Language had become not just a tool for me, but something of a hobby, CanEnglish, though, ever be fixed? Of course not: if you read a passage fromChaucer you will see that the meaning of words and the framework of grammarhas shifted over the centuries, and both will continue to evolve. But we have hada standard dictionary now ever since the OED was completed in 1928, andlearned men, many of whom contributed to the OED, wrote grammars a centuryago that settled a pattern of language that was logical and free from the dangerof ambiguity. It is to these standards that I hope Strictly English is looking. Ourlanguage is to a great e ...
