O knihe

English is a funny language. Consider:

Would you call church music organic?

How come it's father, mother, brother, but not sisther?

Why do doctors use a scalpel when they're not operating on your head?

Would you say that an engraver is a cemetery worker?

Isn't it macabre that slaughter is mostly laughter?

Wouldn't it seem that the opposite of formality should be casualty?

Here is a humorous collection of over 1,000 English words--a veritable encyclopedia--including goofinitions, mock antonyms, collective nouns, hyphens, punishing adjectives, bundle words and much more. This is a must-have volume for comedians, speech writers, punsters, toastmasters, English teachers, and all students of language.
