Description

 							
  A lifelong
Anglophile, Erin Moore was born and raised in Florida, where the sun shines and the tea is always iced. But by the time
she fulfilled her dream of moving to London, she had vacationed in the UK, worked as an editor with British authors, and
married into an English American family. The last thing she was expecting was a crash course in culture shock, as she
figured out (hilariously, painfully) just how different England and America really are. And the first thing she learned
was to take nothing for granted, even the language these two countries supposedly share.
  
  In That’s
Not English, the seemingly superficial variations between British and American vocabulary open the door to a deeper
exploration of historical and cultural differences. Each chapter begins with a single word and takes the reader on a
wide-ranging expedition, drawing on diverse and unexpected sources. In Quite, Moore examines the tension between English
reserve and American enthusiasm. In Gobsmacked, she reveals the pervasive influence of the English on American media; in
Moreish, she compares snacking habits. In Mufti, she considers clothes; in Pull, her theme is dating and sex; Cheers is
about drinking; and Knackered addresses parenthood. 
  
  Moore shares the lessons she’s had to learn
the hard way, and uncovers some surprising and controversial truths: for example, the “stiff upper lip” for
which the English are known, was an American invention; while tipping, which Americans have raised to a high art, was
not. American readers will find out why bloody is far more vulgar than they think, what the English mean when they say
“proper,” and why it is better to be bright than clever. English readers will discover that not all
Americans are Yankees, and why Americans give—and take—so many bloody compliments, and never, ever say
shall. (Well, hardly ever.)
