With dazzling wit and astonishing insight, Bill Bryson—the acclaimed author of The Lost Continent—brilliantly explores the remarkable history, eccentricities, resilience and sheer fun of the English language. From the first descent of the larynx into the throat (why you can talk but your dog can't), to the fine lost art of swearing, Bryson tells the fascinating, often uproarious story of an inadequate, second-rate tongue of peasants that developed into one of the world's largest growth industries.

HyggeligBill Bryson er en god formidler, men ved man noget om lingvistik, er denne bog en pine.

InformativKlogTankevækkendeBogen er meget spændende, hvis man godt kan lide sproglig historie. Den kræver dog et grundlæggende kendskab til engelsk og grammatik.
