Download What's in a Word? Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
A compendium containing the origins and history of some of the most common words and phrases in the English language. Once upon a time . . . Tying the knot actually involved tying a knot—not saying vows. Meanwhile, a thinking cap wasn’t just a cute idea for schoolchildren, but an actual hat worn by scholars in the Middle Ages. Oh, and when you make no bones about something, you should consider yourself lucky you aren’t choking on a chicken foot. What’s in a Word? answers the question it poses, more than three hundred times over. You’ll learn which side of the bed is the wrong side, and why the word “nickname” is simply the product of slurred speech. Webb Garrison’s etymological journey through the origins of words and phrases, both common and obscure, is sure to fascinate wordsmiths of every stripe.

Download Interesting Origin Stories Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
This book makes learning new words and their origin very interesting by going to the roots of words and knitting a story around the same to make it very interesting. So rather than an academic exercise learning new words becomes fun through anecdotes. As the focus is on the roots of the words that came from Latin and Greek you learn more than one word once you understand the roots of the word. The same way the writer gives you how multiple word roots join to form more complex words.
