Dear Forum Member and Friend,
The Forum is pleased to post the Fourth Batch (the last batch) of its retrospective of 12 selected Silent Fire columns--three columns per batch--that started last September 29. The retrospective is being presented for the benefit of very young English-language learners and very busy adult learners at the time who had likely missed reading these columns.

The Fourth Batch consists of the following three Silent Fire columns that appeared in the Campus Press section of The Manila Times in 2008-2009:
10 - “Clichés and bad body English”
11 - “The proper uses of ‘they’ and ‘it’”
12 - “The rocky road to idiomatic English”
