Book Description Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. 1st Edition. This copy is in new, unmarked condition bound in green cloth covered boards with bright gilt titling to the spine. This copy is bright, tight, white and square. The unclipped dust wrapper is in new condition. International postal rates are calculated on a book weighing 1 Kilo, in cases where the book weighs more than 1 Kilo increased postal rates will be quoted, where the book weighs less then postage will be reduced accordingly. Provides the history of nearly twelve-hundred words, clears up misconceptions about their origins, and explains why false etymologies often develop. This book does not set out to impose its etymologies as the only solutions but sets right some of our misconceptions about the origins of English words. Here we see how over the centuries people have tried to explain expressions intuitively, and have often failed because of homophones or coincidences. Ref JJ 4. Seller Inventory # 030742
