The “Speaking Freely” link is very funny.
The Economist’s style guidance on “Americanisms” is interesting. I prefer “car” to “automobile,” but note not all “cars” (e.g., rail) are “automobiles.” The Economist prefers “district” to “neighbourhood,” but I usually thnk of the former as a political term (e.g., I live in the 13th Congressional District) and the latter as an area that persons may actually know (e.g., the University of Chicago is in the Hyde Park neighborhood). I disagree–and so, I suspect, would the Navy, Marine Corps, or Air Force–that “[t]he military, used as a noun, is nearly always better put as the army.” Maybe “armed forces” would be better?
I assume the very hip readership of O&M already knows “Eats, Shoots and Leaves” by Lynne Truss . . .
