- Subtitled, Popular Expressions - What They Mean & Where We Got Them. Explores the history and context of commonly used phrases such as 'keen as mustard' and 'push the boat out'. Despite being used regularly, if anyone actually stopped and thought about what they were saying, they'd realise just how bizarre they sound: Why is being healthy compared to a small stringed instrument But every cloud has a silver lining, so if you're sick as a parrot at being one sandwich short of a picnic, this guide will put you on cloud nine and make you pleased as punch that you'll never put your foot in it again. 22x136x202 mm Englisch.

How on earth did 'with bells on' come to express enthusiasm? Why is good health compared to a small stringed instrument? ('As fit as a fiddle.') And what do pickles have to do with quandaries? Let's not beat about the bush: despite the fact that we have all used these phrases at one time or another, and even enjoyed expressing them, they are in truth - when you take a moment to consider them - completely senseless and utterly fantastical. We all know what somebody means when they use these phrases due to our common knowledge of them, but it wouldn't be surprising if, when asked to explain them, you found that the cat had got your tongue, or you simply clammed up! "Spilling the Beans on the Cat's Pyjamas" provides us with the meanings to these well-worn and much-loved phrases by putting these linguistic quirks in context, and explaining how and why they were first used. Absorbing, diverting and fascinating - as far as Christmas gifts go, "Spilling the Beans" really is the bee's knees!. Bookseller Inventory # AA29781843173656
