Around the World in 80 Words: A Journey through the English Language by Paul Anthony Jones Book Review

Name: Alibaba
Rating: 5.0 out of 5 stars
Title: .0 out of 5 stars What a delightful read
Date: Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 6, 2019
Review: I'm not finished reading but this book is a delighful read.
The writing is easy to understand, fluid, connects with previous chapter, gives previews of upcoming ones. You get more words than bargained for within each chapter. There is a bit of history, lots of humour, definitely some geography and lots of 'wow, that's interesting' moments.

I see persons make mention of the unusual format of the footnotes. Sure, it stretches across the pages (one sheet to another, instead of just all on one page) but that prevents their being more footnote than main text on pages. It doe NOT take away from the content. So no biggie.

An enjoyable read. I have persons eyeing my book to borrow it.

Review: This is the sort of book that can be read over a long period - one word at a time. I mostly found it interesting...

Review: A great idea but a little tiring and even boring by the end of the book. I really enjoyed the first third of the book but it became repetitive and a tad boring afterwards

Title: .0 out of 5 stars For something just a little different….. and with a little nod to Jules Verne….
Date: Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 30, 2018
Review: In this captivating round-the-world jaunt, Paul Anthony Jones reveals the hidden histories, tales and global adventures that lie within the pages of our dictionaries. It is a beautifully presented book that offers fascinating facts and insights into the origins of words and concepts.

First stop France and a perusal of the Vaudeville… a journey via a Monsieur Basselin, born in Vire, who liked nothing better than bawdy interludes in the 15th Century, (known as chansons de vau de vire)… which of course eventually morphed into Vaudeville. On to Germany via Saverne and Spa (Belgium) to the origins of Neanderthal and the importance of human remains found near Düsseldorf.

Bergamot comes from Bergamo in Italy and a multitude of pigments used in painting also originated in the country, (known for a wealth of great painting talents). Umber is probably from ombra, which means shadow (tenuously via Umbria as well) and Magenta hails from the town of the same name, via a bloody battle.

Satsumas found a circuitous route from Japan to the Southern United States; and then it’s on to Australia where a Queensland sore is a festering manifestation associated with scurvy. Then there is the country whose etymological contribution to the English language includes a dog, a sauce, a chilli pepper and possibly a clapped-out old car (any guesses as to which country that would be?). Discover the origins of a Toronto Blessing or find out what a Pisgah View might be. And just how did a tiny hamlet in Nottinghamshire become Gotham City? It’s all in the book and more.

It is a fascinating labour of love, that the author has delved into so many common words and found their oftentimes elusive etymology. The research is simply breathtaking and the attention to detail is striking. There is indeed so much knowledge to be had out there, if only one knows where to look! And this book is a good place to start.

Overall a wonderful book to pick up and read a chapter or two at a time. The layout, with the footnotes, isn’t ideal however… they sometimes continue across pages and very often I would read down and realise there was an irrelevant text going on at the bottom that was a continuation from the previous page. A line to distinguish would be good.
