Product details

Our language is constantly evolving. While today the "Babo" receives a nice WhatsApp, in the past a quaint dispatch might have reached the official – of course, only if it hadn't been tampered with along the way. Petra Cnyrim has already demonstrated with her bestseller "The Book of Nearly Forgotten Words" how exciting it is to dig up old words, to wonder, and to remember. With her new book, she now ventures into the world of words that have completely fallen into oblivion. For example, what is a "Schlotbaron"? What is an "Ehegaumer"? And what does the expression "weidlich" mean? A fascinating journey through the (linguistic) history of our country.
