Description
101 English Expressions II – Further Adventures in Figurative Language
This book is the sequel to the earlier publication, 101 English Expressions: A Journey through Figurative Language.
In 101 English Expressions II the journey continues, as the origins of many more common English expressions are examined and revealed. No longer will these common expressions be “hard to fathom” or seem “quixotic”, and even though there are countless idiomatic figurative expressions in the English language, the reader need not merely be “scratching the surface” or end up “behind the 8 ball” when it comes to a knowledge of figurative language.
101 English Expressions and 101 English Expressions II not only allow the reader a greater comprehension of their native language but also make for amusing and edifying entertainment when friends come to visit.
Discover the roots of the metaphorical expressions that fill our language. Not only will the reader find this discovery “tantalizing,” they will, after all, no longer have to settle for “the short end of the stick!”
Delve in, “double down,” and continue the journey with 101 English Expressions II, and enjoy Further Adventures in Figurative Language.
