Product Description
Have you noticed how often the English language uses figures of speech? Imagine someone coming home from work saying, Honey Im home. I sure hope you dont want to paint the town tonight because I am one whipped pup. I just want to stay around the crib this evening. Im so hungry I could eat a horse and my feet are killing me. I want to down some groceries and hit the hay. No sheep counting for me tonight. I bet Ill be asleep before my head hits the pillow. Im going to sleep like a baby. Before I catch some Zs though, Im going to see whats on the tube, do a little web surfing and catch up on some email. Would you have any trouble understanding the meaning of the conversation? Not at all. Consider, however, someone from a different culture or time period hearing these words. Im sure there would be no small confusion. Why would anyone want to paint a whole town? How can feet murder someone? Does an adult really sleep in a crib? Whats this sport web surfing? Either you have big spider webs or very small people. We would definitely have to translate the figures of speech for our confused visitor. Figures of speech suspend the normal meaning of words to convey an emphasized message that is easily understood by people in a particular culture.
