En los ámbitos no estrictamente académicos tiende a describirse la ortografía inglesa mediante un conocidísimo aserto, carente de rigor pero bastante orientativo: en inglés se escribe de un modo y se lee de otro. Esta es una afirmación corriente entre hispano-hablantes, acostumbrados como estamos a un sistema de correspondencias grafo-fonémicas relativamente sencillo, apenas complicado por la funcionalidad compartida de «b» y «v», o por la existencia de la letra consonántica muda «h». Ciertamente, en algunas variantes del castellano las consonantes «s, z, c» o «ll, y» pueden plantear problemas de cierta magnitud, pero nada comparable con el complejo panorama que presenta, ante el lector no nativo, la interpretación fonémica del inglés escrito. Esta obra muestra al lector interesado aspectos poco estudiados de la relación entre letras vocálicas y sonidos vocálicos del inglés, ofreciendo un conjunto de reglas, tablas de analogías y principios que rigen, de modos distintos y con distintos grados de regularidad, buena parte de estas correspondencias. No se trata de una obra estrictamente divulgativa no es un manual sino de un estudio sistemático de correspondencias grafo-fonémicas. Con todo, encierra la obra una invitación, a los profesores de inglés de todos los niveles, a reflexionar en torno a las ventajas que, para el aprendizaje de la lengua, puede reportar un aumento de la sensibilidad y la consciencia grafo-fonémicas en la lengua inglesa y, al mismo tiempo, una invitación a servirse de ella para enriquecer nuestra práctica docente.

Un dietari poètic, en el sentit més ampli del terme, com a recull d'unes vivències concretes a través del temps i dels dies, que parlen a través dels versos, com anotacions aparentment immediates. Un dietari, també, sentimental, moral i intel·lectual, perquè parla de totes aquelles coses que ens condicionen i que no es veuen, i que creixen des de dins per conduir els nostres actes i les conseqüències d'aquests actes. Dividit en quatre parts, com les quatre estacions amb què el temps parla i es concreta, L'arrel i la pluja és, doncs, com un conte amb protagonistes, amb principis i finals, amb nusos i desenllaços, en un poemari-bloc en què els poemes transiten per formes mètriques diverses, entrelligades, i que a poc a poc, per reiteració o contraposició, van creant un discurs paral·lel al correlat que expliquen.
El Diccionario de uso del español de María Moliner define "falso amigo" como "Palabra o expresión de una lengua extranjera que, por ser muy similar a otra de la lengua propia, puede ser interpretada incorrectamente". En una época como la nuestra, en la que el español vive en contacto permanente con el inglés, un diccionario como el de Marcial Prado (especialista en este campo y autor también de The NTC's Dictionary of Spanish False Cognates es una guía segura para los hispanohablantes que leen, trabajan o estudian en inglés. Diccionario de consulta muy recomendable para periodistas, traductores y lingüistas.
Shakespeare és una cultura en si mateixa dins la tradició literària catalana, que amb ell se significa i aspira a l'excel·lència que li pertoca dins el cànon europeu.Aquesta nova traducció al català dels seus Sonets complets (1609) ens mostra el Shakespeare del segle XXI, un amant apassionat, sensual i sexual, sempre intel·ligent, a través de la música única del geni clàssic més modern, que 400 anys després parla amb veu d'avui. Decasíl·labs rimats per a un amor, com els d'Homer, Dante o Baudelaire, jove, immortal i necessari.Txema Martínez (Lleida, 1972). Poeta, traductor i editor, ha publicat diversos llibres de poemes, entre els quals L'arrel i la pluja (Proa, 2008), a més d'algunes plaquettes.
