Edition: 3rd ed. Annotated.

Format: Hardcover, 318 pages

Description:

This expanded third edition defines and cross-references 7,781 homophones and 1,552 homographs (up from 7,000 and 1,400 in the 2d ed.). Reviews of the earlier editions: "The amount of material...is considerable"-Booklist/RBB; "a fine job.... Recommended"-Choice; "the best roster of these phenoma"-Wilson Library Bulletin; "a good choice for any library"-RQ. As the most comprehensive compilation of American homophones (words that sound alike) and homographs (look-alikes), this latest edition serves well where even the most modern spell-checkers and word processors fail-although rain, reign, and rein may be spelled correctly, the context in which these words may appropriately be used is not obvious to a computer.
