The Etymologicon A Circular Stroll through the Hidden Connections of the English Language Hardback - 2012

de Forsyth, Mark


Resumen

A witty, erudite and slightly ribald guided tour of the secret labyrinth that lurks beneath the English language.Springing from writer and journalist Mark Forsyth's hugely popular blog The Inky Fool and including word-connection parlour games perfect for any word-lovers get-together, The Etymologicon is a brilliant map of the secret labyrinth that lurks beneath the English language. There's always a connection. Sometimes, it's obvious: an actor's role was once written on a roll of parchment, and cappuccinos are the same colour as the robes of a Capuchin monk. Sometimes the connection is astonishing and a little more hidden: who would have guessed that your pants and panties are named after Saint Pantaleon, the all-compassionate?
