How to Say It, Third Edition: Choice Words, Phrases, Sentences, and Paragraphs for Every Situation

It is very beneficial for international student who are learning English, writing English articles or emails

I bought one copy in 2013 for my son. Though I am not a scholar in English Language I saw this is a book that gives every thing to a person who wish to study English. It helps to both Academic and Home needs. The way of compiling is great and the step by step instructions and examples can any person to become versatile in the English Language. Its worthiness was proved when I had to purchase three copies later for some friends of my son. In my opinion a person having this book could study the maximum techniques in the English Language with ease and need not spend more for additional ones. From my personal experience I realize the usefulness as now my son manages independently in his studies or work that involves English Language. Though English is not our mother tongue, this book teaches effectlvely and gives trust in the mind to use the language without fear. A book that is a teacher for English studying people.

I bought this because I am autistic, and typical communications are often overwhelming and/or confusing for me. O am always looking for guides about communication and interacting with people in a respectful, appropriate way. This has been an excellent reference for when when I need to write or reply to someone about a variety of topics. Not only does this book talk about how to say certain things, it also talks about what NOT to say, along with helpful writing tips, and tips for special situations. I highly recommend this book for anyone looking for good core communication tips and ideas that can help in this giant world of confusing language.

This book covers everything I need to clarify and formalize my letters. A must for every library. This would also make a great graduation gift for a student.

Am writing article on how to write thank you notes for a January issue of a senior newsletter. The book has a lot of examples. I plan to give it for wedding gifts to encourage couples to write thank you notes for gifts. Apparently, young couples are not longer required for write thank you notes for wedding gifts.

I was introduced to this book years ago on a friend's recommendation. This review comes years after I have bought the book and used for several occasions. It is a good-to-have on bookshelf as you probably will need to write one or some kinds of text (like letters of resignation, congratulation, etc) ever in your life. I am still using it occasionally. While you can apply templates straight away, the author also provides some phrasal expressions for you to make your own piece of text. Recommended to those who write things as a handy reference.

Not recommend for this book and the material is pretty bad

This book is a great resource for young professionals. I have used it help write at work many times. It is also a great guide on how to be polite.

言語には忠告、謝罪、お祝いなどいわゆる発話行為(speech act)に応じた定型表現がある。本書は英文手紙を50のタイプにわけて、それどれのタイプにふさわしい表現、避けるべき表現などを詳述したもので､ ネイティブスピーカー対象に書かれたものであるが、我々日本人が英米人に英語で手紙を書く場合にも大いに参考になる。評者は友人である数人の在日英米人に日本語の年賀状を出しているが、余白に英文を添えることにしている。何か気の利いた英語表現がないかと本書をめくってみたところ､下記のような例（p. 254）が見つかったので早速（年は訂正して）いずれか一例を余白に引用した。 I hope that 2010 was a good year for you and that 2011 will be even better. May the beauty and joys of this season stay with you throughout the year. 少し分厚く扱いにくいが､ 必要に応じて参照すると有益な情報が得られる。書棚に置いておくと何かと便利な書である。

Delivery is fast but there is a mistake of bookbinding that makes reading hard.
