This title is printed to order. This book may have been self-published. If so, we cannot guarantee the quality of the content. In the main most books will have gone through the editing process however some may not. We therefore suggest that you be aware of this before ordering this book. If in doubt check either the author or publisher’s details as we are unable to accept any returns unless they are faulty. Please contact us if you have any questions.

Entertaining yet informative, this book captures the quirkiness of languages and phrases from around the world and translates them into a fun format and great gift. In Russia, for instance, ‘to put a pig under someone’ means to play a dirty trick. In France, ‘to have a well hung tongue’ means to be eloquent. If someone in Germany tells you that you’re living your life ‘like a maggot in bacon’, it means you’re living the life of Riley. The broad selection of idioms provides a quirky look at different cultures and how they perceive the world in a light - hearted, fun manner.
