  • Rules of style that may have once held a certain (dubious) validity but are now long dead; nevertheless they continue to live on various websites devoted to the general issue of how English is going to the dogs. Examples: never split an infinitive, don't end sentences with a preposition, don't start sentences with a coordinate conjunction, avoid the passive voice, etc. etc.
