Beschreibung
This entertaining and illuminating book explores the intriguing and unfamiliar stories behind scores of familiar words that the English language has borrowed from other tongues - from the Celtic languages of pre-Roman Britain to Norman French; from the Vikings' Old Scandinavian to Persian, Arawak, Cantonese, Hawaiian, Hebrew, Inuit and Erdu - amongst a host of others. The perfect gift for word buffs.
