Description
The English language can be confusing. But it's not rocket surgery. This book is a fascinating suppository of false facts and common errors -- a minefield of information. Have we wetted your appetite? Peaked your interest? Or could you care less? Fall on intensive purposes, this is the book for you. This book features illustrations alongside 50 amusing malapropisms, mixed metaphors and mandegreens. In one foul swoop you'll learn why so many people get muddled by the same phrases!
