Book Description
Come along to the Missouri Ozarks! This is a book that can be enjoyed by both young and old alike. It's living in a rural area with clear streams made for floating and fishing, heavily wooded hills hiding fantastic caves, woodland creatures from the white-tail deer to the wily raccoon, and the hoot of the owls to lull you to sleep. But when young Bill's parents separate and he comes to this place with his mother, he feels nothing but sadness and loneliness. Then, through an accident, he meets two young hillfolk who show him the secrets and wonders of the Ozarks and teach him what true happiness is. Billy's life, both at school and at home, changes, but there are secrets he must keep. Though the "Hillfolk" and some of their superstitions come from Ozark folklore, the adventures of the boys could be enjoyed by anyone today. The setting is here!

A Dictionary of English and Spanish Equivalent Proverbs
Author: Teodor Flonta
Publisher: DeProverbio.com
ISBN: 1465754539
Category : Foreign Language Study
Languages : en
Pages : 352
Book Description
This Dictionary assembles 2,201 English proverbs and their Spanish equivalents. Equivalent proverbs are those which express the same concept literally, such as "Love is blind" = "El amor es ciego" or with completely different words, such as "Every cloud has a silver lining" = "No hay mal que por bien no venga." The Dictionary is a very useful reference tool for scholars of the two languages, for researchers working in various associated fields such as linguistics, literature, folklore, anthropology, psychology, sociology, history, and for workers in newer areas such as advertising and contemporary media. The Dictionary is also of interest to diplomats and politicians who try to improve their communication by sharing ideas formulated in some common meaningful expressions; it will assist interpreters and translators, and teachers and students for whom it is important to understand not only what the target culture expresses in the same way as their own, but also what is formulated in a different way. The Dictionary is also of benefit to non-professionals who, for the sheer enjoyment of it, wish to savour the wisdom, wit, poetry and the colourful language of proverbs.
