Foyle's Philavery
Author: Christopher Foyle
Publisher: Larousse Kingfisher Chambers
ISBN:
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 252
Book Description
The word 'philavery' was invented to describe this book - a collection of words chosen simply on the grounds of their aesthetic appeal. Some of these words appeal because of their aptness, some for their obscurity, some for their euphony, and some for their quirkiness.

The Indispensable Dictionary of Unusual Words
Author: Josefa Heifetz Byrne
Publisher: Skyhorse
ISBN: 9781616086503
Category : Reference
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
From aasvogel (the South African vulture) to knurry (full of knots), from melangeur (a machine for making chocolate syrup) to zumbooruk (a small cannon fired from the back of a camel), the words in this book are guaranteed to expand your vocabulary and confound your friends. They may be obscure and even preposterous, but every entry in this eye-opening book has been accepted as a formal or legitimate English word by at least one major dictionary. This dictionary does not claim or attempt to be complete. It is based completely on the editor’s sense of wonder and absurdity. It is educational, yes, but also more fun than any dictionary has a right to be!
