SINOPSIS : A survey of the quirks and quandaries of the

English language, focusing on our strange and wonderful

grammarWhy do we say I am reading a catalog&#8221instead

of I read a catalog&#8221 Why do we say do&#8221at all? Is

the way we speak a reflection of our cultural values? Delving

into these provocative topics and more,Our Magnificent

Bastard Languagedistills hundreds of years of fascinating lore

into one lively history.Covering such turning points as the littleknown

Celtic and Welsh influences on English, the impact of

the Viking raids and the Norman Conquest, and the Germanic

invasions that started it all during the fifth century ad, John

McWhorter narrates this colorful evolution with vigor. Drawing

on revolutionary genetic and linguistic research as well as a


cache of remarkable trivia about the origins of English words

and syntax patterns,Our Magnificent Bastard Tongueultimately

demonstrates the arbitrary, maddening nature of

English&#8212and its ironic simplicity due to its role as a

streamlined lingua franca during the early formation of Britain.

This is the book that language aficionados worldwide have

been waiting for (and no, it&#8217snot a sin to end a sentence

with a preposition). ***************************************** - Our
