Why do we all speak differently, with different voices, dialects and languages? Does the way we speak determine how others see us? This book describes how language shapes our identity, how we use language to get what we want and how it can be used for evil as well as noble purposes.Madeleine Kando’s fascination with language has culminated in this charming collection of witty short stories, including some language stories for children. ‘Playing with Language’ will stimulate your curiosity about that which most clearly defines us as ‘human’.
