Krátky popis
This lively and informative new title was originally inspired by
the author’s Italian mother and her struggles with the vagaries of
the English language. Over the years the author has tried to
correct her attempts and explain why the word she has chosen is
incorrect, only to be baffled herself by the lack of logic within
those explanations. English is full of contradictions and
peculiarities (not counting such dull grammatical inconsistencies
as ‘i before e except after c’, which are really no fun at all) and
hoodwinks us into believing one thing while meaning something quite
different. In English, all is not what it seems and with this book
the author has brought these illogical oddities to the fore.
