 DICTIONARY OF COLORFUL PHRASESThe Americans are quick to adopt cleverly colorful phrases that make no literal sense.
This book is a collection of sayings commonly used and understood by Americans, but rarely found in English dictionaries.
The illustrations humorously depict these Americanisms, and the stories of actual origin of each slang expression turn out to be fascinating. |
