What do a comic alphabet, a glorious lipogram and a wellerism have in common?
Or, an audit of accountants, an illusion of magicians, and an intrusion of spammers?
And do you know how Shakespeare pronounced his name?
Quirky, original, amusing and enlightening, this charming English Language Miscellany from David Crystal, one of the greatest British linguists of our time, offers fascinating observations on random, weird and witty words and expressions, collected over a number of years.
