Description
"Journalists trade in words. Using language accurately, clearly and consistently is part of their job-and this skill is equally important for writers and editors. The second edition of Watch Your Words-now updated according to changes in AP style-is a handbook for quick and accessible classroom and newsroom use. Consistent with The Associated Press Stylebook, it establishes a baseline for language-skills knowledge in the areas of punctuation, grammar and usage, as well as AP style. This handy book also contains self-tests, answer keys and sections on spelling and copy-editing symbols. The second edition includes a new section of supplementary self-tests for additional practice. Mastery of the material in Watch Your Words can equip the student or professional with the basic tools for producing clean copy. Book jacket."--Jacket.
