confusing words Errata

Author's note
How I wish this page didn't exist. To my proofreaders (paid and unpaid), I thank you that there are not more errors in this very demanding text, and I take full responsibility for the few that crept through (and particularly the 'clanger' I added at the last minute). To anyone out there who has found an error that isn't listed here, please do notify us at info[at]nakedize.com. The same goes for queries or suggested improvements.

Needless to say, all errors listed on this page will be corrected in the next printing of the book.

Simon Hertnon

29 PUNCTATION PUNCTUATION This misspelling made it past everyone and, we later discovered, had actually gone unnoticed in the original seminar booklet for years. Of course, the spotter opened CCC for the very first time and immediately saw it. And if you're wondering about the spell-checker, it turns out that punctation is a word ('the marking or indentation of a puncture').
Bibliography 1979 1997 Incorrect publication date of the Painless Grammar book.
