Why Do We Say That? 101 Idioms, Phrases, Sayings & Facts! A Brief History On Where They Come From! Paperback – 2 May 2022
**** "Why Do We Say That? 101 Idioms, Phrases, Sayings & Facts!" presents a unique and engaging exploration of the intriguing world of idioms and their origins. The book's layout is simple yet effective, offering short entries for each idiom complemented by charming illustrations that enhance the reading experience. Many readers have found this structure entertaining, as it brings a delightful randomness with "did you know" facts scattered throughout the pages, ensuring that interest is maintained from start to finish. For English learners, the book serves as a fun and effective tool in expanding vocabulary and comprehension without the intimidating length of a typical novel. Its blend of idiomatic expressions — ranging from well-known to obscure — offers a quirky insight into the English language and its quirks. However, the reception isn't without its criticisms. Some readers have pointed out that many entries lack depth, primarily summarizing meanings rather than diving into their historical origins, leading to disappointment for those seeking a more comprehensive understanding. Moreover, some have commented on the quality of illustrations and the book's overall professional presentation. In summary, "Why Do We Say That?" is appreciated for its entertaining format and ability to engage readers, particularly those new to English. Nonetheless, its superficial explanations may not satisfy all audiences, especially those expecting a more thorough academic discussion. **
