註釋The third collection of Diarmaid O'Muirithe's ever-popular Irish Times column of the same names follows on from The Words We Use (1996) and A Word in Your Ear (1997). As with the previous two volumes, this collection illustrates the author's delight in language and his passion for words. Drawing on his own wit, a wide range of sources and the inspiration of his readers, O'Muirithe examines and illuminates words and phrases, both colloquialisms and standard English.
