96 Curious Phrases From Around the World takes a fascinating trip through the world's oddest idioms, unusual sayings and wonderfully baffling expressions. Across 96 pages, discover what these phrases actually mean, where they came from and why on earth anyone thought they made sense in the first place.
It's an entertaining mix of language, culture and trivia that's perfect for dipping into whenever you fancy learning something completely unnecessary but thoroughly fascinating. And, naturally, once you've discovered a particularly brilliant phrase, you'll probably feel compelled to tell everyone about it.
A great gift for travellers, language lovers, trivia fans, word nerds and pub quiz enthusiasts, this quirky book is guaranteed to provide plenty of conversation starters. Because knowing how another language describes something bizarre is far more interesting than knowing how to order another cup of coffee.
