Publisher's Synopsis

A Warwickshire Word-Book is a comprehensive collection of obscure and dialect words, colloquialisms, and other linguistic curiosities from the county of Warwickshire in England. Compiled by G. F. Northall, this book offers a fascinating glimpse into the rich linguistic heritage of this region, including words and phrases that have fallen out of common usage or are unique to Warwickshire. The entries are organized alphabetically, making it easy to navigate, and each word is accompanied by a definition and often an example of how it might be used in context. This book is a valuable resource for linguists, historians, and anyone with an interest in the English language and its regional variations.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
