Index s.431-663.

The reader, the writer, the after-dinner speaker, the crossword-puzzle solver and the browser-all will find this invaluable companion. Turn up such key-words as God, life, love, money, peace, war, word and world and discover a babel of opinions: with one or more of which you may care to embellish your writing or conversation. Or, by making direct use of the first section - the authors are in alphabetical order - read the outstanding and memorable statements made by the great. Or by the not-so-great who have enriched the language with a single phrase. Foreign languages are quoted in the original where the quotation is generally remembered in its foreign from, but an English translation is always provided.

A Dictionary of Euphemisms : How Not To Say What You Mean / R. W. Holder. - Oxford ; New York : Oxford University Press, 2008. - XVI, 410, [2] strony ; 20 cm.

Oxford Paperback Reference / Oxford University Press

This brand new edition celebrating 20 years of R. W. Holder's popular and successful dictionary of euphemisms is packed full of traditional favourites, such as 'Dutch uncle' or 'push up the daisies', as well as euphemisms from the contemporary world such as 'restructuring', 'coffee-housing', 'extrajudicial killing'. Definitions include examples from real authors, along with entertaining explanations of their origins. To prove that the use of euphemisms is not just a British speciality, there is widespread coverage of American euphemisms, too: for example, 'English' (pertaining to sexual deviance) and 'watermelon' (an indication of pregnancy). The A-Z organization of the text is complemented by a thematic index with short introductory articles on fruitful areas of euphemistic language such as business, sex, death, and the human body. This book remains the most lively and authoritative guide to the language of evasion, hypocrisy, prudery, and deceit.
