Common Errors in English [Book Review]

Had I been asked to rename this book, I would have titled it as ‘Learn English through errors’. This unique book can be used by anybody in India who wants to improve their English. Each chapter opens with a short and simple introduction of the topic, and examples with errors and the corrected form help the learner to understand the syntax and semantics of the English language in a better way. The chapters: Aesthetic Errors, Miscellaneous Errors, and Unique Indian English Expressions are like the icing on a cake. This book can be used as a reference book for students
appearing for any competitive examinations and English language proficiency tests. In addition, English Language teachers in India can use the examples from the book to teach better.

All in all a very good English language book for the Indian readers.
