"This is the book I wish I'd had when I was at school." This was
the opinion of one person on seeing "Tutor Master helps you Learn
English". "I wish I'd had this book when I was studying at
university", was another similar view expressed. Whether a school,
college, university or a parent wishing to further your own
knowledge of English and support your child's studies, the generic
qualities of this book make it suitable for all those seeking to
improve their understanding of the English language and literacy.
Written primarily for students studying for qualifications in
English, this book is also appropriate for students studying
English as a foreign language (EFL). The book contains 550 key
words and terms to do with the English language and literacy. Words
and terms are listed in alphabetical order with phonic cues to
assist pronunciation. Short, accessible and easy to understand
definitions are provided accompanied by helpful examples. A useful
technique to make the book easy to use is that words that appear
underlined in the definitions are listed elsewhere in the book. By
providing a quick and handy reference book for students of all
ages, this dictionary promotes personalised learning and
independent study. It will also provide a source of reference for
teachers and lecturers as well as supporting teaching and learning
in language schools and TEFL colleges. So if you want to find out
about, or confirm, your understanding of "Past Participle", "Split
Infinitive", "Onomatopoeia", "Zeugma", "Hyperbole", "Metonym" or
"Pronoun", this is where you need to look!

Kraai dood te maak. Die meesterlik kreatiewe Daniel Hugo het hierdie

romans en strokiesprente sal weggeblaas word deur die besondere details

Tussen die boom se blare waar sy soms vir haar lewe wegkruip en per
ongeluk vir Lua, die coolste meisie wat sy ken, afloer. Sy is vas
tussen die soet geure van haar ma se koekskeppings en haar uitgewaste
jeans. Vas tussen haar pa se rugbesering terwyl hy plastiek-warlord
speel en die węreld vanuit sy studeerkamer probeer red. Vas in haar
onvermoe om haarself te laat geld. Sy is moeg vir wegkruip, moeg om die
enigste agter-die-klip-tiener te wees en te vries wanneer sy moet
vlieg. Tot Lua onverwags'n paar ou rolskaatse vir Hannah gee en haar
help om kelnerin by die akwarium se koffiewinkel te word. Hannah kom
voor 'n keuse te staan: veg, vlug of vries? Sy kies! Sy kyk video's oor
hoe om bo te bly, want skaats gaan sy skaats. Die De Lange-broers kruis
haar pad. Leo leer haar skaats, Ben wys haar die dolfyne en Hannah se
vlerke kry vere. Sy vlieg en wanneer sy land ... land sy op wiele!
