Good Writing is Alusive*

In the seminar, we review some comical word misuses. In one class a student laughed more loudly than the others as he read them, then produced from his wallet a list of his boss’ malapropisms, including:

"Let's conjugate at the baggage claim," "You can't rest on your morals," and "We need to be translucent with our customers."

Are you and your employees unknowlingly making major writing errors?

* “Alusive” isn’t a word, but was used by a client in his sales literature.
