Saying What You Mean

The Book

Before you argue with a sentence, find out how many sentences it is. A working manual for the moment a word stops being free and starts being a rule — in a policy, a statute, a platform's terms of service, an accusation.

The book exists in two languages: Saying What You Mean in English and Att säga vad man menar in Swedish. Each edition stands on its own and can be read without the other.
