In each of the thirty chapters, Erin Moore explains a different word we use that says more about us than we think. For example, "Quite" exposes the tension between English reserve and American enthusiasm; in "Moreish," she addresses our snacking habits. In "Partner," she examines marriage equality; in "Pull," the theme is dating and sex; "Cheers" is about drinking; and "Knackered" covers how we raise our kids. The result is a cultural history in miniature and an expatriate's survival guide. American by birth, Moore is a former book editor who specialized in spotting British books-including Eats, Shoots & Leaves-for the US market. She's spent the last seven years living in England with her Anglo American husband and a small daughter with an English accent. That's Not English is the perfect companion for modern Anglophiles and the ten million British and American travelers who visit one another's countries each year. 538 Mode of access: World Wide Web. 650 0 English language|xVariation. 650 0 English language|xSpoken English|zUnited States. 650 0 English language|xSpoken English|zGreat Britain. 650 0 English language|zGreat Britain|xUsage. 650 0 English language|zUnited States|xUsage. 650 0 English language|xUsage. 650 0 Americanisms. 651 0 Great Britain|xCivilization|xSocial aspects. 651 0 United States|xCivilization|xSocial aspects. 700 1 Parks, Shannon,|enarrator. 710 2 hoopla digital. 856 40 |uhttps://www.hoopladigital.com/title/ 12161762?utm_source=MARC|zInstantly available on hoopla. 856 42 |zCover image|uhttps://d2snwnmzyr8jue.cloudfront.net/ gil_9781469031606_180.jpeg
