Compound Words: A quick reference for writers! (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781940802275)

No longer does an author need to interrupt the flow of his/her creativity to verify, in a 2,000+ page dictionary, the format of a compound word. Nor does an author need to leave his/her manuscript, Google a word combination, return to the manuscript, insert the formatted spelling, and continue where he/she left off. Compound Words contains over 15,700* of the most commonly used compound words--listed alphabetically so that a simple fanning through the pages brings the author to the desired word and spelling within moments. At a glance, it is clear if a compound word consists of a single word, multiple words, or hyphenated words. Other information, such as which spelling belongs to which part of speech, also speeds up the process of choosing the appropriate compound word. * Selected from three of the most authoritative, updated unabridged dictionaries.
