Cauld Blasts and Clishmaclavers: A Treasury of 1,000 Scottish Words (Crawford Robin A.)(Pevná vazba) - popis produktu

A celebration of the irreplaceable magic of language, and the wit and wisdom of 1,000 Scottish words. The Scots language is an ancient and lyrical tongue, inherently linked to the country's history and identity, its land and culture. In Cauld Blasts and Clishmaclavers, Robin Crawford has gathered 1,000 words from his native land - old and new, classical and colloquial, rural and urban - in a joyful and witty celebration of their continuing usage and unique character.

Blast: 1. violent wind 2. blow on a trumpet 3. vanity, blowing one's own trumpet. Notoriously all three in the polemic 'The First Blast of the Trumpet Against the Monstruous Regiment of Women' published by John Knox in 1558, but more tenderly by Burns in 'Oh wert thou in the cauld blast'

Clishmaclaver: the passing on of idle gossip, sometimes in a book.

Simmer dim: Shetland term for long summer
