我立刻想到了几本：- Garner's Modern American Usage - The Hardware Hacker（我是 bunnie 的超级粉丝）- The Art of Electronics（Horowitz 和 Hill）。我桌上其实没有固定的“参考”书。大多数都会根据我正在做的事情相当频繁地轮换……
A few immediately come to mind: - Garner's Modern American Usage - The Hardware Hacker (I am a huge fan of bunnie) - The Art of Electronics (Horowitz and Hill) I don't really have "reference" books on my desk. Most rotate out quite frequently depending on what I'm…
Garner 的重心在于用法（usage），而非语法（grammar），所以对于用法 linter 来说，这似乎不是个大问题。有没有哪本像《Garner's Modern American Usage》那样通俗、全面、易读，而且被认为更准确的指南？选择似乎并不多。（我有一本 GMAU，看得很爽，但主要是看用法探讨，而不是语法的细节）
Garner's focus is on usage, not grammar, so for a usage linter, this doesn't seem like a big problem. Is there an accessible, comprehensive, easy-to-read guide like Garner's Modern American Usage that's considered more accurate? There don't seem to be many options. (I have a copy of GMAU and enjoy it, but mostly for discussion of usage, not the details of grammar)

He is a careful compiler of advice and you'll find that he is almost never "totally wrong", and when his advice is debated, he knows it, notes it, and provides a thoughtful discussion. re 1, we think…
……像“more unique”这类用法究竟是对是错。所以你看，在用法上，语言学家在审美趣味问题上帮不上任何忙。我建议你去查阅一本权威的英语参考书，比如《Garner's Modern American Usage》。在那本书里你会读到，unique 的这种随意用法应当避免。很抱歉，你没法在网上免费找到《Garner's》，所以我给不了链接。去你当地的图书馆看看吧，趁着那里还……
…whether "more unique," etc. is right or wrong. So, you see, regarding usage, linguists are of no help in matters of taste. I would suggest you consult a quality reference on the English language, such as "Garner's Modern American Usage." There, you would read that these casual uses of unique ought to be avoided. I'm sorry, but you won't find "Garner's" online for free, so I can't link to it. Consult your local library, while there still…
