English for Professional Journalism and Advance Communication

The linguistic choices we make when we want to communicate (journalistic writings inclusive) go a long way to affect both the effectiveness and success of the communication process. In every communication activity, the intention of the communicator and the context of discourse dictate the choices of linguistic items to be made as well as their use. This text provides guides for both the professional journalist and the individual involved in advance communication on the standard set of professional linguistic choices, linguistic items and patterns, and usage thereby promoting professionalism.
