Aber für di andere isches sauluschtig ... find ich ämmel # Verbs HAS to agree with their subjects. # Prepositions are not words to end sentences with. # And don't start a sentence with a conjunction. # It is wrong to ever split an infinitive. # Avoid cliches like the plague. (They're old hat) # Also, always avoid annoying alliteration. Be more or less specific. # Parenthetical remarks (however relevant) are (usually)unnecessary. # Also too, never, ever use repetitive redundancies. No sentence fragments. # Contractions aren't necessary and shouldn't be used. # Foreign words and phrases are not apropos. # Do not be redundant; do not use more words than necessary; it's highly superfluous. One should NEVER generalize. # Comparisons are as bad as cliches. Don't use no double negatives. # Eschew ampersands & abbreviations, etc. One-word sentences? Eliminate. # Analogies in writing are like feathers on a snake. # The passive voice is to be ignored. # Eliminate commas, that are, not necessary. Parenthetical words however should be enclosed in commas. # Never use a big word when a diminutive one would suffice. # Kill all exclamation points!!! # Use words correctly, irregardless of how others use them. # Understatement is always the absolute best way to put forth earth shaking ideas. # Use the apostrophe in it's proper place and omit it when its not needed. # Eliminate quotations. As Ralph Waldo Emerson said, "I hate quotations. Tell me what you know." # If you've heard it once, you've heard it a thousand times: # Resist hyperbole; not one writer in a million can use it correctly. # Puns are for children, not groan readers. # Go around the barn at high noon to avoid colloquialisms. # Even IF a mixed metaphor sings, it should be derailed. # Who needs rhetorical questions? # Exaggeration is a billion times worse than understatement. 1 mal bearbeitet, zuletzt Mo 8.10.07, 23:52 |
