Dictionary of Languages: The Definitive Reference to More than 400 Languages
Columbia University Press | April 15, 2004 | ISBN-10: 0231115695 | 753 pages | PDF | 7.8MB

This encyclopedic dictionary offers an overview of over 400 alphabetically arranged living and extinct languages and language families. Introductory material provides background information on why languages grow apart and converge, some basic methodologies of historical linguistics, views on learning other languages, and frequently asked questions/answers about language. As in his Guide to World Language Dictionaries (LJ 3/15/99), Darby clearly describes and explains the book's many reference features, which include a glossary of 100 linguistic terms. He also explains positions taken on linguistic disagreements and considers each language's history, relationships to other languages, and estimated current speakers.

A Dictionary of Cockney Rhyming Slang
Watchya.com Publicatons | 2010 | ISBN: N/A | 77 pages | PDF | 2,1 MB

Cockney is a dilect spoken in East end in London and Cockney rhyming slang is a pretty simple if somewhat odd affair. It basically consists of a couplet of words, the second of which rhymes with the word you’re actually aiming at. For example, the word “glasses” is represented by the phrase “Aristotle Onassis,” and the word “look” by the phrase “butcher’s hook.” Cockney rhyming slang is talked about more often than it is actually used. Some phrases are in fairly common usage country-wide — you’re quite likely to hear people saying “butchers” to mean “look,” or “porkies” to mean “lies” (pork pies), but you’re unlikely to hear anyone talking about putting on their Aristotles

The Oxford English Dictionary is the accepted authority on the evolution of the English language over the last millennium. It is an unsurpassed guide to the meaning, history, and pronunciation of over half a million words, both present and past. It traces the usage of words through 2.5 million quotations from a wide range of international English language sources, from classic literature and specialist periodicals to film scripts and ****ery books

The Oxford English Dictionary is the accepted authority on the evolution of the English language over the last millennium. It is an unsurpassed guide to the meaning, history, and pronunciation of over half a million words, both present and past. It traces the usage of words through 2.5 million quotations from a wide range of international English language sources, from classic literature and specialist periodicals to film scripts and ****ery books.

The OED covers words from across the English-speaking world, from North America to South Africa, from Australia and New Zealand to the Caribbean. It also offers the best in etymological analysis and in listing of variant spellings, and it shows pronunciation using the International Phonetic Alphabet.

As the OED is a historical dictionary, its entry structure is very different from that of a dictionary of current English, in which only present-day senses are covered, and in which the most common meanings or senses are described first. For each word in the OED, the various groupings of senses are dealt with in chronological order according to the quotation evidence, i.e. the senses with the earliest quotations appear first, and the senses which have developed more recently appear further down the entry. In a complex entry with many strands, the development over time can be seen in a structure with several ‘branches’.
