Die Leerderboek by die Aanleerderswoordeboek is 'n pretboek wat
spesiaal opgestel is om saam met die Aanleerderswoordeboek gebruik
te word. Die een helfte van die title bestaan uit Afrikaanse en die
ander helfte uit Engelse oefeninge en blokraaisels. Die inhoud van
die title is veral daarop gemik om gebruikers te leer hoe om 'n
woordeboek met vertroue te gebruik. Boonop brei die oefeninge
gebruikers se woordeskat uit en verryk dit hulle taalkennis van
beide Afrikaans en Engels deurdat die oefeninge binne die raamwerk
van die Nasionale Kurrikulum vir Grade 5, 6, 7 en 8 se
leeruitkomste vir taal (huistaal en eerste addisionele taal)
opgestel is. Aan die einde van elke oefening word daar aangedui op
watter leeruitkoms(te) die bepaalde oefening fokus.
Sinonieme en verwante woorde is 'n handige gids wat die gebruiker
lei om vir elke situasie die regte woord te vind. By die keuse van
woorde wat in die plek van die soekwoord gebruik kan word, word nie
net sinonieme gegee nie maar ook woorde wat andersins aan mekaar
verwant is. Onder voertuig word byvoorbeeld verskillende soorte
voertuie gelys. Dit laat die werk in 'n groter mate beantwoord aan
die talle behoeftes van gebruikers wat hulp soek by die keuse van
die regte woord of term. Die titel maak die woord los wat op die
tong le. Dit help onderwysers, leerders en studente, skrywers,
joernaliste, politici, blokraai-invullers en elke taalgebruiker om
die regte woord op die regte plek in te span.
From "Geronimo " to "gesundheit" to "haminahamina" to "holy"
"mackerel," and from "abracadabra" to "zoinks," Mark Dunn and
Sergio Aragones show you interjections like you've never seen them
before.
Often thought of as unnecessary verbal fringe or simply linguistic
decoration, interjections ("ahem," "howdy," "mamma" "mia," "pshaw,"
" tally-ho," " whoop-de-do") may well be the most overlooked part
of speech in the English language. "ZOUNDS A Browser's Dictionary
of Interjections" focuses the spotlight on this most deserving (and
sometimes most demented) grammatical group. A light-hearted look at
more than 500 interjections, "ZOUNDS " explores the origins of
these essential words and highlights the contributions of these
previously unheralded parts of speech.
Perfect for both word lovers and the casual reader, "ZOUNDS "brings
together the linguistic talents of Mark Dunn, author of the
award-winning novel "Ella Minnow Pea," and the graphic hilarity of
Sergio Aragones, the legendary cartoonist and contributor to Mad
Magazine, for a delightful romp through grammar, culture, and the
English language.
Famous interjections include:
"Eureka "
-Archimedes
"Badabing-badaboom"
-Tony Soprano
"Stuff and nonsense "
-Alice, "Alice in Wonderland"
"Bah Humbug "
-Scrooge
"Fiddle-dee-dee "
-Scarlett O'Hara
"Leapin' lizards "
-Little Orphan Annie
"Nanoo, nanoo"
-Mork, from "Mork & Mindy"
"Dyn-O-Mite "
-Jimmie Walker, "Good Times"
"Bully "
-President Theodore Roosevelt
With her signature cache of illustrations and flamboyantly gothic examples, Karen Elizabeth Gordon, "who has achieved cult status with her whimsical references, defines an array of daffy, delicious words" (Library Journal). In The Disheveled Dictionary Gordon conjures a world of words, their definitions and myriad uses, and along the way invokes favorite characters from earlier books. Gordon's eccentric wit and unique insights take readers on a delightful romp through the dictionary that will expand their vocabularies and exhilarate their minds. Along the way she celebrates not only the obscure but also our most beloved and basic words. The Disheveled Dictionary is a treat for anyone who loves language -- its sound, its sensuality, its ability to surprise and delight.
