Campaign for an English language adviser - broadcasting.
The purpose of this site is to persuade the BBC to appoint a Language Adviser. This site is critical of the BBC but not inimical to it: the BBC’s best presenters and technicians stand for British excellence, but its present highest executives demean the corporation. The four letters on this site make that point.
Deals only with vocabulary, grammar and style.
Accent and pronunciation are not considered.
For proposals to halt the decline in English, see The Solution. See Mend Your English page 130 (ISBN 978-0-9546862-1-5). Mend Your English is available from good bookshops including The British Library Shop at 96 Euston Road, King's Cross. Telephone (0207) 412 7735.
