The Story of English pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載 2025
Now revised, The Story of English is the first book to tell the whole story of the English language. Originally paired with a major PBS miniseries, this book presents a stimulating and comprehensive record of spoken and written English-from its Anglo-Saxon origins some two thousand years ago to the present day, when English is the dominant language of commerce and culture with more than one billion English speakers around the world. From Cockney, Scouse, and Scots to Gulla, Singlish, Franglais, and the latest African American slang, this sweeping history of the English language is the essential introduction for anyone who wants to know more about our common tongue.

见过自恋的,没见过像本书翻译如此自恋的,从头到尾一直在注释中发表高深的见解,什么“字典上如何如何翻译,我觉得不对”,“大家都翻译成****,但我觉得不好”之类的屁话。Singlish明明就是“新加坡英语”或“新加坡式的英语”,好像不翻译成“新格利系”就不能显示自己的翻...
評分其实翻译的水平还是可以的,这本书也是英语史著作中最通俗的一本,David Crystal也推荐过。不过有点Anglo-saxon中心论。我更喜欢John Mcwhorter的野史版。

評分*** 由于英语的“入侵”,瑞典出现了瑞典式英语(Swinglish), 如Bye-bye变成了Baj baj, 瑞典也有人责怪英语“腐蚀了”瑞典语,作者说:人们总是因为社会的变化,归咎语言的变化。喊着英语电视节目入侵的那些人,或许是在发泄对于瑞典社会发展变化的不满。“抱怨语言就和抱怨...
評分对英国本土英语影响最大的,应该是爱尔兰的诗性传统与美国英语的形成。前者是无穷无尽的想象力,后者是无边无际的勇气。 诗人欧阳昱的译笔有翻译者少有的果断,对一些概括性、引领性词汇的翻译命名颇有趣味,也许此中的精神恰恰符合了英语自身的变化。
