Someone has been busy finding mangles… This is Dr Faustus Week, which begins with this extract — apologies for the hideous colour scheme:
Oddly, the rest of the list does seem to have been properly checked…
Businesses that don't bother checking their websites, journalists who write gibberish and balderdash, professionals who can't take the extra time and effort to spell-check and proofread, newspapers that turn tragedy into farce through solecisms, plus the odd guide to solving common grammatical difficulties… Contributions and suggestions welcome. (… Also corrections if required, obviously!) Send to: manglingenglishATgmxDOTcom, stating your nom de mangle (if desired).
