Good tip . . bad English . .
Charles Dickens wrote of Nicholas Nickleby "His looks were very
haggard, and his limbs and body literally worn to the bone, ...".
Will you tell Mr Dickens he wrote "bad English" or should I?
James Joyce, in Dubliners: "Lily, the caretaker’s daughter, was
literally run off her feet." Will you speak to Mr Joyce?
Charlotte Brontë, in Jane Eyre: "Literally, I was (what he often
called me) the apple of his eye." Will you approach Ms Brontë about
her error?
And there we were, thinking these were writers of excellent English!
