Such is often improperly used for the adverb so.
“In such a mild and healthful climate.” This should be, “In so mild and healthful a climate.”
“With all due deference to such a high authority on such a very important matter.” Change to, “With all due deference to so high an authority on so very important a matter.”
Good, Well
Many intelligent persons carelessly use the adjective good in the sense of the adverb well; as, “I feel good to-day.” “Did you sleep good last night?” “Does this coat look good enough to wear on the street?” “I can do it as good as he can.” The frequent indulgence in such errors dulls the sense of taste and weakens the power of discrimination.
Very much of
“She is very much of a lady.” Say, “She is very ladylike.” “He is very much of a gentleman.” Say, “He is very gentlemanly.”
Quite
This adverb is often incorrectly used in the sense of very or rather. It should be employed only in the sense of wholly or entirely. These sentences are therefore incorrect:
“He was wounded quite severely.”
