This book was released on 2011 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Complete Guide to English Usage for Australian Students has been a trusted reference book for Australian secondary students for more than 25 years. The fifth edition retains the comprehensiveness and reliability of the previous edition but has been extensively revised to accurately reflect the new Australian Curriculum, including the use of grammatical terms such as a nominalisationa , a connectivesa and a noun groupa . The Communication through Writing section has been re-arranged and extended to reflect the Australian Curriculum categories for types of text (imaginative texts, informative texts, and argumentative or persuasive texts). The Appendix on functional grammar has been retained and is a useful guide to some of the unfamiliar Australian Curriculum terminology, including concepts like modality and cohesion. The Complete Guide has an abridged version called The Shorter Guide.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Age range 12+ Do you ever think about the structure and arrangement of what you say and write? And why it’s said and written like that and not some other how? Has anyone ever asked you to catch a red big ball? No. Because in English we would say ‘big red ball’. Why is that? After the success of her bestselling The Australian Schoolkids’ Guide to Debating and Public Speaking, Claire Duffy turns her hand to helping students write well. In this easy-to-use and fun guide to writing and grammar, children (aged 12+), their parents and teachers will learn all they need to know about the elements of grammar, punctuation, spelling and sentence construction. With practical tips and helpful step-by-step examples, this book will help students master everything from apostrophes to essay writing. ‘Any mention of grammar, punctuation and spelling can make students take fright. This clear and cheerful guide makes writing easy and will soothe any fear or dread.’ — Sue Butler AO, former editor of Macquarie Dictionary

Download or read book American Accent Drills for British and Australian Speakers written by Amanda Quaid and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-02-24 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American Accent Drills for British and Australian Speakers provides a comprehensive guide to learning a "General American" accent, made specifically for native English speakers. Unlike most American accent guides, which are geared toward ESL learners, this handbook covers only the shifts that English speakers need to make – nothing more, nothing less. In addition to vowel and consonant drills, it covers the finer points of American intonation and elision, features that often elude English speakers of other dialects. Finally, it provides exercises for "owning" the dialect, finding authenticity and making it work for each individual actor in their own way. This is an excellent resource for students of speech and dialects, actors from the UK, Australia, and New Zealand, and advanced ESL learners who need to use an American accent on screen or on stage. American Accent Drills for British and Australian Speakers also includes access to downloadable audio files of the practice drills featured in the book, to help students practice and perfect their American accent.
