""A Proposal For Correcting, Improving And Ascertaining The English Tongue: In A Letter To The Most Honorable Robert Earl Of Oxford And Mortimer, Lord High Treasurer Of Great Britain"" is a book written by Jonathan Swift and published in 1712. The book is a proposal to the Earl of Oxford and Mortimer for the correction, improvement, and ascertaining of the English language. Swift argues that the English language is in a state of disarray and confusion due to the lack of standardization and the inconsistent use of grammar and spelling. He proposes a set of rules and guidelines for the proper use of the English language, with the aim of establishing a standard that can be universally accepted and understood. The book is considered a significant work in the history of English language and has had a lasting impact on the development of the language.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
