Salut! Prost! Skål! Na zdrave! Tagay! No matter what country you
clink glasses in, everyone has a word for cheers. In Cheers! Around
the World in 80 Toasts, Brandon Cook takes readers on a whirlwind
trip through languages from Estonian to Elvish and everywhere in
between. Need to know how to toast in Tagalog? Say "bottoms up" in
Basque? "Down the hatch" in Hungarian? Cook teaches readers how to
toast in 80 languages and includes drinking traditions, historical
facts, and strange linguistic phenomena for each. Sweden, for
instance, has a drinking song that taunts an uppity garden gnome,
while Turkey brandishes words like
Avrupalılaştıramadıklarımızdanmışsınızcasına. And the
most valuable liquor brand in the world isn't Johnny Walker or
Hennessey, but Maotai—President Nixon's liquor of choice when he
visited China. Whether you're traveling the globe or the
beer aisle, Cheers! will show you there's a world of fun waiting
for you. So raise a glass and begin exploring! The audio book is
narrated by Nicholas Smith. Produced by Speechki in 2021.
