The aim of this book is to provide a succinct, accessible and comprehensive guide to linguistic concepts and names. 'Linguistic' here does not mean the technical terminology of linguistic sciences, but language in a more everyday sense. Terms are drawn from the various applied areas of language study, such as language teaching, speech pathology, stylistics, typography, and lexicography, as well as from core topics such as grammar, figures of speech, and basic phonetics

Majuscules, abréviations, symboles et sigles, autant d'éléments qui posent régulièrement des problèmes à ceux qui doivent maîtriser la langue et soigner la présentation de leurs écrits dans leur pratique quotidienne. La majuscule, d'abord : elle est un moyen d'expression puissant et direct dont il faut savoir user sans abuser. A côté de ses usages purement grammaticaux, elle permet tout un jeu de nuances dont il faut connaître le code. L'emploi de la majuscule est aussi directement lié à celui des abréviations, symboles et sigles. Dans trois chapitres fouillés, l'auteur définit ces termes, explicite leurs différences d'emploi et propose un commentaire éclairé sur la vitalité de ces trois procédés largement utilisés aujourd'hui. Il donne enfin plusieurs listes : abréviations couranes, sigles usuels, principales unités de mesure, symboles chimiques et symboles internationaux des monnaies.

Eighty years ago, the "greatest work in dictionary-making ever undertaken" was completed. And with its enormous range, unparalleled historical depth, detailed etymologies, and inexhaustible supply of illustrative quotations, it has enriched the lives of writers, readers, and word-lovers of all stripes ever since. Begun in 1857, published in ten volumes in 1928, subsequently revised and expanded to 20 volumes in 1989, and now adopted to the electronic age, the OED has become the most venerated and most beloved English-language reference ever compiled. The key feature of the OED, of course, is its unique historical focus. Accompanying each definition is a chronologically arranged group of quotations that illustrate the evolution of meaning from the word's first recorded usage and show the contexts in which it can be used. The quotations are drawn from a huge variety of sources--literary, scholarly, technical, popular-and represent authors as disparate as Geoffrey Chaucer and Erica Jong, William Shakespeare and Raymond Chandler, Charles Darwin and John Le Carre. In all, nearly 2.5 million quotations--illustrating over a half-million words--can be found in the OED. Other features distinguishing the entries in the dictionary are the most authoritative definitions, detailed information on pronunciation, variant spellings throughout each word's history, extensive treatment of etymology, and details of area of usage and of any regional characteristics (including geographical origins). A dictionary like no other in the world, the OED has been described as "among the wonders of the world of scholarship." Reflecting upon the Dictionary's 80 years, that statement is today more apt than it ever has been. Also available online at: www.oed.com
