Describe: Learn to write clearly and concisely.The Dictionary of Concise Writing consists of two parts. In the first part, Isuggest how to identify and correct wordiness. The second part of the book isa compilation of several thousand wordy phrases followed by concise alternative expressions and real-world examples. I show each sentence example in its original, wordy version and then in a revised, concise version. In replacing a wordy phrase by one less wordy or by a single word or in deleting the phrase altogether, I have tried to show how wordiness can encumber clarity and that it can be corrected. The sentence examples have been edited only to remedy the wordiness diagnosed; rarely are theysyntactically and stylistically ndefectible.
