5.0 out of 5 stars Fun and educational book - languages bring new concepts, March 26, 2000

This review is from: There's a Word for It (Hardcover)
I really enjoy this book and every time I have come across a copy I will purchase it as a gift. The author does a great job of explaining the concepts and has created a wide sampling of untranslatable words. I was expecting to find only european ideas like Treppenwitz and Gemutlichkeit, but the book is more like armchair travel in a world of new words and concepts.
