someone absquatulates...? Find out all this and more in The
Dictionary of Difficult Words. Test your knowledge with more than
400 words to amaze, confuse and inspire budding wordsmiths (and
adults). All of the words featured in this book are difficult to
spell, hard to say and their meanings are obscure to most children
(and most adults)! You can master them with the simple,
easy-to-understand definitions and pronunciations written by
lexicographer (yes, that's in there too!) Jane Solomon. Fun,
colourful illustrations add whimsy to the pages. Some jobbernowls
say dictionaries are anachronistic, or even obsolete, but it's
kenspeckle to real bibliophiles that those vociferous ninnyhammers
are just metagrobolised by the plethora of portmanteaus, neologisms
and jargon they offer. Next time you find yourself wrangling with
one of these ultracrepidarians, no need to imagineer a sockdolager:
just show them this book. This captivating dictionary celebrates
the beauty of the English language for family trivia time spent
around the printed page.
