A shorter version of the Companion , this concise work concentrates on the central themes in the English language: grammar, usage, dialect, pronunciation and the history of English. All the key subjects within each theme are covered, and individual entries offer all the most essential information from the parent Companion . With nearly 2,000 articles in an A-Z format, the Concise Companion is a suitable reference for both students and general readers wanting access to the scholarship of the Companion in a smaller format.
