TIPS
for International Speakers of English

 

These tips appeared weekly on the Cross-Culture Communications website from December 2000 to December 2002 (prior to the CLOSE SYNONYMS series). The tips have come about through ongoing work with private clients and seminar groups—in response to the same concerns and questions that come up repeatedly among international speakers of English, regardless of first language. They are meant to clarify subtle yet important points that may not be explained by more generalized English language texts. They are designed to suit varying levels of proficiency—keeping in mind that even advanced speakers are often unaware of some underlying basics. The tips are here reorganized by category to make them easier to access.
