Lo faresti Adamo ed Eva? Oltre cento anni dopo che è stato ascoltato per la prima volta nelle strade della vecchia Londra, lo slang in rima Cockney è ancora forte e questo libro contiene la guida più completa e divertente di sempre. Presentato in un formato dalla A alla Z di facile lettura, spiega il significato di centinaia di termini, dai vecchi preferiti come mele e pere (scale) e piatti di carne (piedi) ai più oscuri band of hope (sapone) e tagli e graffi (fiammiferi) fino ai classici moderni come Anthea Turner (guadagnatore) e Ashley Cole (autogol), oltre a fornire affascinanti informazioni di base e curiosi fatti Cockney in tutto il libro. Sono inclusi anche una serie di test linguistici in modo che i lettori possano ripassare le loro nuove conoscenze nel loro percorso per diventare un vero Cockney Geezer. Tutto sommato, The Ultimate Cockney Geezer's Guide to Rhyming Slang vale il tuo pane e miele per andare da un macellaio.

Presented in an easy-to-read A to Z format, it explains the meaning of hundreds of terms, from old favourites such as apples and pears (stairs) and plates of meat (feet) to the more obscure band of hope (soap) and cuts and scratches (matches) through to modern classics such as Anthea Turner (earner) and Ashley Cole (own goal), as well as providing fascinating background info and curious Cockney facts throughout. Also included are a series of language tests so that readers can brush up on their newfound knowledge on their way to becoming a true Cockney Geezer. All in all, The Ultimate Cockney Geezer's Guide to Rhyming Slang is well worth your bread and honey to have a butcher's. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition.
