Publisher Description: Long before Richard Brinsley Sheridan's play The Rivals gave it a name, the malapropism - known to the Irish as coileach focal suas, to the Spanish as palabra polla and to the Australians as verbal cockup - has been an endless source of merriment and not a little confusion. Dancer Dee Dee Wilde, a well-known practitioner of the art of malapropism, now brings us this book of funny, bizarre and often naughty verbal accidents, charmingly illustrated by the author. 'Dee Dee is a malapropist and never ceases to keep me on my toes as I attempt to understand what she is trying to say.' From the Foreword by Henry Marsh |
