Ling 10 Usage, Mechanics, Style, and Writing July 16, 2002 Usage refers to grammar, mechanics to punctuation. Both operate at the sentence level. Style refers to the image projected by an entire text (i.e. it operates at the discourse level). We'll cover the sentence-level issues first, but not because you should consider them first in your writing. Remember: Writing is a multi-step process involving both writing and editing. When writing, go as quickly as possible without concern for usage, mechanics, spelling, or any other technical issues. Get your ideas on paper. When editing, you can consider all of the issues discussed below. With practice, you'll be able to get the grammar correct during writing and focus on larger issues during editing.
