Known as “Attila the Pun” and “The First Name in Popular Linguistics,” Richard Lederer is Learning and Language Dressed Up to Have Fun, and Lederer’s Language & Laughter is his funniest book ever. In its pages, he takes you on a joyride through our glorious, uproarious, notorious, victorious English language.
Chock full of jokes, wordplay, bloopers, puns, crazy English, funny names, grammar stammers, and hilarious holiday humor, this book will brighten your days and make you laugh again and again. A belly-shaking guffaw stimulates circulation, tones the muscles, energizes the lungs, excites endorphins, adds T cells to the immune system, reduces pain, inflammation, and muscle tension, and provides superb aerobic exercise. They who laugh, last.
Welcome to the website woven for wordaholics, logolepts, and verbivores. Carnivores eat meat; herbivores eat plants and vegetables; verbivores devour words. If you are heels over head (as well as head over heels) in love with words, tarry here a while to graze or, perhaps, feast on the English language. Ours is the only language in which you drive in a parkway and park in a driveway and your nose can run and your feet can smell.
