Synopsis of The Story of English

Un fascinante recorrido por la historia del idioma inglés, desde sus orígenes anglosajones hace dos mil años hasta su posición actual como lengua dominante en el comercio y la cultura global. Este libro explora la evolución del inglés hablado y escrito, abarcando desde el cockney y el scouse hasta el singlish y el franglais, sin olvidar el slang afroamericano más reciente. Una introducción esencial para cualquier persona interesada en conocer más sobre nuestra lengua común.
