Book Reviews of Here Speeching American: A Very Strange Guide to English as It Is Garbled Around the World
Book Review: Now, just imagine how Americans sound to THEM!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a sweet little collection of some of the funniest misuse of the English language! It's nicely organized into specific categories, and I absolutely guarantee some quotes will make you cry from laughing so hard.
You'll either find yourself reading them out loud to family and friends, or copying them over and emailing them out to everyone you know!
Do you suspect that there's a book out there about how Americans sound like fools in other countries trying to speak a foreign language? (Just a little sobering thought!)
