This book was an obscene-swag bellied-ticklebrain! And a beslubbering-lily livered-codpiece. Among other things 😂

Fun book- I would like more information on the individual plays that the insults are from, however.

Let's start with this amazing introduction! It says that these Shakespearian insults are welcome when compared with the F-word which is used most at this time. “The usage of the F-word, is more akin to the pre-linguistic banality of dogs barking at one another than it is to any inventiveness of human wordsmithery.” I bought this book at a book fair and I was so happy with it! As someone who loves to read, who loves language and who has a degree in English, this is the.perfect.book for me! So bas Let's start with this amazing introduction!

So basically, you open it, and there are types of words that you can combine to make the perfect Shakespearean insult. On the back of the strips of paper, all the words are explained. It is also mentioned if the word was invented by Shakespeare (or at least first recorded in his writing) and if he used the insult only once or more. I absolutely love it! The next person who defies me had better watch out: “degenerate sheep-biting blockhead”!

Got this as a gift. My friends know me so well.

Only lost the fifth star because of stiffness in the spiral binding. Could cause page tearing!
