Notes
Description
The English language is full of phrases and sayings, used on a daily basis by all of us and sometimes we need to take the time out to find out where on earth these familiar utterances come from. Students of our language often struggle with these eccentric modes of expression as they have no obvious connection within the context of an otherwise perfectly innocuous conversations. This is an enthralling, fun and educational look at the humble words we rarely consider.
