Summary, etc. Whether your interest is neologisms or pleonasms, sobriquets or oxymorons, tongue-twisters or palindromes, this book strolls through the vast landscape of the English language and wanders down its most illogical, peculiar and idiosyncratic byways. It ranges from where words have come from to why spelling and pronunciation don`t match up.
