More about the book

What is a "boondoggle," a "kerfuffle," or a "squeegee"? How does a horse sound in English? Or a frog? A pig? A sheep? What does "to open a can of worms" mean? Andrew Williams has compiled and explained a wealth of oddities and curiosities about English, including wordplay, tongue twisters, and unfortunate translations. It's fun, educational, and by the end, you might be "flabbergasted."
