British English for Americans

By Mr. William C. Pollard Jr.

The English spoken and written in the United Kingdom has hundreds of words and phrases that are not readily known to Americans. Some of these words and phrases are slang and many are not. Many have come about because of considerable cultural differences between the United States and the constituent parts of the United Kingdom. This book explains what these words and phrases mean and, in many cases, it tells how slang words originated. Most of the words and phrases explained in this book are from England, but a scattering are from Scotland and Northern Ireland. This book is directed toward anyone interested in visiting the British Isles, as knowing local words can be quite handy.
