回復 shadeslayer 的帖子

早幾年古先生曾經同人為英文筆戰，難道 shadeslayer 是鄧氏一族？

I did not know Mr Koo and Mr Tang had that fight before. After I read that book briefly at the bookstore, I searched his name, only then I found the fight between them. Judging from their backgrounds and from what they said, it seems Mr Tang is more trustworthy.
Seriously, I saw some poorly written columns in the past (not him), but some articles in this book are just not acceptable (to me). Where is the proof-reading? It was released recently and you are likely to see it in the book fair.

Remember one example:

He suggested a _better_ expression than "very beautiful" --- surpassing beauty.

"A girl of surpassing beauty, ....."

The more bizzare a thing is, the less mysterious it proves to be.

Wow, another one?

You are testing my memory.

Ah, another one (I think)

What is the difference between the two sentences below:

1. She must be turned fifty.

2. She must have turned fifty.

Remember, he is hailed as an expert in English and was the top student in his department of English. There were other issues so it does not look like a typo. Even such mistakes in a printed book, where was the proof-reading?

Just forget it.

嗯⋯ 我估未買過嘅會希望有實物睇下摸下至買，所以等書展。價錢嘛，就真的不要期望書展會平。
這間公司已經公佈了書展優惠是送屏幕貼，而他們網上的Kindle 售價是$1080 大元 vs 我買的 $690！

我個屏幕貼廿蚊有找喎！
