The English language is a bit ridiculous. It's unreasonably complex, half of its rules are completely arbitrary, and most of us don't really know why we use it the way we do. But if you want to get an A on that essay, publish a killer novel or make people think you're funny on the internet, it's important to know how English works - if only so you can break it apart and use it as you please. The Pointless Rules of English and How to Follow Them is your handbook to taking control of your writing. From magic Es to perfect progressive tenses, from essay structure to inclusive writing - we've got you covered. Answering the big questions: - What's the deal with 'whom'? - How do I use 'they' as a singular pronoun? - Can I have five question marks in a row in this tweet - And what is a word, anyway?
