4.0 out of 5 stars
Caution: Do not read in public!,
By Alison Irving (Orleans, Ontario Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Talk Talk Talk: Decoding the Mysteries of Speech (Paperback)
Unless, that is, you have no problem with people shooting you strange looks...Jay Ingram writes a truly engaging study of language - one which will have you laughing out loud, and others laughing AT you. You will be unable to resist trying out the intricacies of speech Ingram highlights, and when you are caught audibly comparing the sssss to the sssshhhh sounds you'll understand what I mean. This book had me thoroughly enthralled. Since its scope is so broad, Ingram does not go into enough detail for the book to be inaccessible. Indeed, it will only ignite a curiosity and appreciation for language you never knew you had! |
