A delightfully witty and informative book for fans of Patricia T. O'Conner's previous bestseller "Woe Is I" and other popular books on language, like "Eats, Shoots & Leaves" and "The Elements of Style" Do the British really speak better English than Americans do? Why don't French women wear brassieres? Does "ain't" deserve its bad rep? Should "niche" rhyme with "quiche"? Not so fast--the answers may surprise you! In this fascinating book, the authors cover the whole nine yards (another source of lore!) and debunk myths that have bamboozled word-loving fans of their popular blog, books, and broadcasts. Prepare to change your mind about where words come from and where they're going. Yesterday's blooper could be tomorrow's bon mot. Here's a delightful primer on the eccentricities of the ever-changing, endlessly entertaining English language.
