5.0 out of 5 starsdiscoveries about other cultures
By IrKhou on June 9, 2007
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
This book is excellent for those who are interested to know how and why people from different cultures usually express their likes and dislikes, compliments and invitations. You will see what to expect and how to interpret the phrases of your foreign friends and colleagues. The author illustrates speech patters and certain words' connotations that we have acquired through our cultural traditions in a simple manner - you don't have to be a linguist to understand her ideas.

I used many examples in my Introduction to Linguistics lectures with the first year students and I think they really enjoyed them.

The book really makes you rethink everything that you have already learned about people from other countries.
