Random House Reference, Date: 2008. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Hardcover. New/New. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Over the years many common English words have changed meaning in fascinating, unusual and unexpected ways. For example: Meat was originally a term used to describe any type of food. It then narrowed in meaning to describe an entire meal, such as breakfast or dinner, and finally settled into the meaning we know today: "the flesh of animals as used for food." The word 'adamant' came into English around 855 C.E. as a synonym for "diamond," very different from today's meaning of the word: "utterly unyielding in attitude or opinion." Before the year 1200, the word "silly" meant "blessed," and was derived from Old English 'saelig,' meaning happy. This word went through several incarnations before adopting today's meaning: "stupid or foolish." With the help of historical, cultural, and literary anecdotes, SEMANTIC ANTICS takes readers on a fun, in-depth A-Z journey to learn how hundreds of words have evolved from one meaning to the next.
