评分☆☆☆☆☆

对这本书开始的印象来自在goodreads上面随意浏览2017年有趣的书，后来无意中在移动图书馆车里发现她，就拎回了家。语言对我一直有着说不出的魅力，除了实用的方面，更多是纯粹的美感。字与字之间词与词之间碰撞出的美感，也许在每一种语言里有不同的表现形式，但美感本身则是...

Word by Word 2024 pdf epub mobi 电子书图书描述

Do you have strong feelings about the word "irregardless"? Have you ever tried to define the word "is"? This account of how dictionaries are made is for you word mavens.

Many of us take dictionaries for granted, and few may realize that the process of writing dictionaries is, in fact, as lively and dynamic as language itself. With sharp wit and irreverence, Kory Stamper cracks open the complex, obsessive world of lexicography, from the agonizing decisions about what to define and how to do it, to the knotty questions of usage in an ever-changing language. She explains why small words are the most difficult to define, how it can take nine months to define a single word, and how our biases about language and pronunciation can have tremendous social influence. And along the way, she reveals little-known surprises--for example, the fact that "OMG" was first used in a letter to Winston Churchill in 1917.

Word by Word brings to life the hallowed halls (and highly idiosyncratic cubicles) of Merriam-Webster, a startlingly rich world inhabited by quirky and erudite individuals who quietly shape the way we communicate.
