Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: English as she is spoke by Jose de Fonseca is a befuddled Portuguese-to-English dictionary which was intentionally published as a humorous guide. Excerpt: "A choice of familiar dialogues, clean of gallicisms, and despoiled phrases, it was missing yet to studious Portuguese and Brazilian Youth; and also to persons of others nations, that wish to know the Portuguese language. We sought all we may do, to correct that want, composing and devising the present little work in two parts."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1855, when Jose da Fonseca and Pedro Carolino wrote an English phrasebook for Portuguese students, they faced just one problem: they didn't know any English. Even worse, they didn't own an English-to-Portuguese dictionary. What they did have, though, was a Portuguese-to-French dictionary, and a French-to-English dictionary. The linguistic train wreck that ensued is a classic of unintentional humor, now revived in the first newly selected edition in a century. Armed with Fonseca and Carolino's guide, a Portuguese traveler can insult a barber ("What news tell me? All hairs dresser are newsmonger"), complain about the orchestra ("It is a noise which to cleve the head"), go hunting ("let aim it! let make fire him"), and consult a handy selection of truly mystifying "Idiotisms and Proverbs."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Nobody can add to the absurdity of this book, nobody can imitate it successfully, nobody can hope to produce its fellow; it is perfect." - Mark Twain Historical and linguistic works are among humanity's greatest achievements. They enable us to investigate, uncover, communicate and grow. Another area that this book supports better is our innate human need to laugh. 'English as She is Spoke, or A Jest in Sober Earnest' was published in the eighteenth century, as a phrasebook of sorts designed for the adventurous Portuguese aristocrat. Pedro Carolino and in some lesser part Jose Fonseca worked this into existence, and by historical anomaly it was published for our future enjoyment. There was only one small flaw in this masterful plan, that the author of this book did not himself speak English. He relied extensively on dictionary material and literal translation of idiom which has inadvertently created a treasure trove for those who enjoy linguistic oddity and an accidental satire of idiom. The comedic genius of the work is enhanced substantially by the fact that the author clearly intended to deliver merely factual information and socially appropriate advice but has farcically managed to create an inappropriate and often ludicrous work of linguistic advice. Anyone with the faintest interest in knowing what it might be to 'craunch a marmoset' or whether a member of their prospective ship's crew has 'never not done a wreck' can only do themselves a favour and browse the pages. Whilst some of the unintended innuendo or outrageousness stands as a fantastic comedy resource by itself, there is also a subtler comedy about the formation of idiom and proverb in our English language, French and Portuguese. For linguists and those who love to laugh. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
