The English language is full of beauty and surprises. If you're a lover of the weird and wonderful, from fascinating etymology to the ten most overused and useless English phrases, this book isn't averse to a peppering of persiflage!Did you know: - pilots and air traffic controllers at major air international airports have to speak English- the hashtag symbol is an "e,octothorpe"e,- "e,bumfiddle"e, means to spoil a piece of paper or document- the word "e,noon"e, originally meant 3pm, the literal meaning of "e,bamboozle"e, is to make a baboon out of someone. This book contains a boatload of things you didn't know about the English language and it's a guaranteed prolix-free zone.
