内容简介：
English is the most used language in the World. In fact, there are more people learning it as a second language than there are native speakers. Nevertheless, English has a number of peculiar features that are not well known, not only to foreign language students, but even to those who were born in it. This work focuses on the written representation of the English language, particularly its spelling rules (or lack of them), from the viewpoint of a foreign language speaker who may be used to specific rules in his own language and may be wondering: 'What exactly are the rules for English?'
