Some foreign students find English very difficult, some others find it quite easy. There is one thing, however, on which they all agree: English sounds are vague, complicated, often confusing and totally inconsistent as regards punctuation.

This book is an exhaustive compilation of the most curious words that can be found in the language. It will serve students as a reference when they want to find the correct word to use. It will also help the teacher who wants to show pupils the oddities of the language.

Though the book is eminently suitable for use in schools it is intended primarily for adult students, and so the vocabulary is "grown-up" rather than childish. In the first few lessons the vocabulary has necessarily been drawn from the objects found in the classroom or admitting of easy demonstration, but after that an effort has been made to gain freshness by the use of the living vocabulary of everyday speech. So there is no mention of the "pen of my aunt," but motor bikes, wireless sets, lipstick and laddered stockings, cocktails and the Stock Exchange do figure in its pages. And though those old familiar friends the Tower, Westminster Abbey, and the British Museum
do not appear, the reader is taken to the Derby, an Oxford College, Wimbledon, a Law Court; he has a glimpse of the Boat Race, a motor sale-room, and the "Cheshire Cheese"; he will learn how to make a
telephone call, do a crossword puzzle, or order tea at a " Corner House", how to write a business letter, or get a good seat in the train; he will discover the popular brands of cigarettes, and why English people send their sons to Eton. There is still no royal road to learning, and this book does not pretend to teach English without effort-but it has tried to teach English without boredom.

In Watching the English, Kate Fox takes a revealing look at the quirks, habits and foibles of the English people. She puts the English national character under her anthropological microscope, and finds a strange and fascinating culture, governed by complex sets of unspoken rules and Byzantine codes of behaviour. Her minute observation of the way we talk, dress, eat, drink, work, play, shop, drive, flirt, fight, queue – and moan about it all – exposes the hidden rules that we all unconsciously obey.

Englishness is not a matter of birth, race, colour or creed: it is a mindset, based on a set of behaviour-codes that anyone can decipher and apply – now that Kate Fox has provided the key.
