Description

Mother Tongue: The Story of the English Language

Presenting a tour of English from its mongrel origins to its status as the worlds most-spoken tongue; its apparent simplicity to its deceptive complexity; its vibrant swearing to its uncertain spelling and pronunciation this book covers curious eccentricities that make it as maddening to learn and as flexible to use.
