It may be inconceivable for you to misuse a word, but a quick look around online reveals plenty of people doing it. And it’s all too easy when we hear or see others use words incorrectly and parrot them without knowing it’s wrong.
We know by now that great copy and content often purposefully break the rules of grammar. It’s only when you break the rules by mistake that you look dumb.
So let’s take a look at 27 commonly misused words. Some are common mistakes that can cost you when trying to keep a reader’s attention. Others are more obscure and just interesting to know.

"McGraw-Hill is building a mobile-phone platform to teach English and college test preparation to people in India, which the publisher hopes will help it tap into rapidly expanding cellphone use in emerging markets. The platform, mConnect, comes as textbook publishers are jockeying to supply learning materials on digital devices. If the software is successful in India, McGraw-Hill plans to offer it in other developing countries in Asia and Africa. The service will initially teach subscribers through text messaging and automated voice response, said Bruce D. Marcus, McGraw-Hill’s executive vice president. For instance, automated software will give Indians feedback on their English-speaking abilities, and a text-message service will offer test-preparation questions and grade the responses. The platform is being built in parternship with Wipro, a Bangalore-based technology company, and will launch to limited audiences this summer. "

"Teaching ESL by way of conversation, a common practice in face-face-instruction, is becoming highly motivating to ESL students in e-learning. I hear from teachers I work with and from my own teaching experience, ESL students show high motivation for conversational English in e-learning despite its current drawbacks. With Internet-based instruction only a decade old and emerging e-learning technologies currently experimented among which audio-video have just started catching up, there are challenges: slow video streaming, at times fuzzy and interrupted frames due to insufficient Internet data transfer speed, students' low-end computers, language deficiency and insufficient training to communicate via audio and video. However, for all these drawbacks in e-learning, even static web pages with conversational content are attracting ESL students today. Considering this observation on ESL students' high motivation for conversational instruction, ESL teachers can use conversation to teach language mechanics effectively and, most importantly, help to increase opportunities for the student to speak English. Below you will find a framework for conversational ESL instruction. This framework entails two parts: an overview and a dialog. The overview part is a short paragraph for the ESL student to grasp the topic. The conversation part consists of a dialog written for two speakers, the student and teacher. To make the most of this conversation, the student and teacher role play alternately in the online class. I have found the following pedagogical benefits of teaching by way of conversation in e-learning."
