{"product_id":"strange-bedfellows-michael-fortescue-9781471716867","title":"Strange Bedfellows: Surprising English Cognates","description":"This volume is about the surprises lurking behind the genealogies of English words, often obscured by sound changes and borrowings from other languages. Though surprising - and often amusing - these etymologies are part and parcel of the history of the language. They encompass interesting shifts in meaning through the ages, and reflect the multiple sources that have added to the richness of English vocabulary.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michael Fortescue\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1471716864\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781471716867\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Lulu.com\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/26\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 154\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.42lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.27h x 5.83w x 0.33d","brand":"Michael Fortescue","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48445014049023,"sku":"9781471716867","price":14.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2dd5321f-5396-4e6f-b8a8-c555c1f6ccf5.jpg?v=1777216029","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/strange-bedfellows-michael-fortescue-9781471716867","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
