8 Text Of course a scale of styles exists in all our use of
English, Each of us works not just with one english but many englishes ,And the wider the range of our life and the more various the contacts we have. The wider and suppler must be our command over a range of english styles each of which we know how to use consistently A haphazard knowledge of several style may be worse than useless if we do not the type of occasion on which each is appropriate, or if we do Not know when we are sliding from one to another .we do not say,“it was extremely gracious of you to invite me,lady johes,and I `ve had bags of fun,”because “bags of fun” does not mix with extremely gracious,And because to use an expression like “bags of fun”,we should need to Know lady jones well enough to be addressing her by her first name . Text Turn back Next

9 Text It is not —we must never tire of insisting—that bags
of fun can be labelled “bad ” or “slovenly” english, “a Lazy substitute for thought ” “Bags of fun” is no more a lazy substitute for thought in its appropriate setting than is extremely gracious” in the setting that is appropriate for this expression. As we have seen repeatedly , it is the height of naivety to go round with a single yardstick , measuring english as “good”or”bad”.take the opening suggested earlier for an informal letter : “My dear Frank ,it was awfully nice to get your note other day.”Here are the words that would greatly please the receiver with their warmth and friendliness ,it they include awfully ,get and nice ,Three words which have been condemned so often that many people cannot write them without having a slight feeling of guilt .they have been called “slovenly ”and even “meaningless”.such an attitude is plainly ridiculous and can do nothing but harm to the good use of english.
