Product Information
Salut! Prost! Skål! Na zdrave! Tagay! No matter what country you clink glasses in, everyone has a word for cheers . In Cheers! Around the World in 80 Toasts , Brandon Cook takes readers on a whirlwind trip through languages from Estonian to Elvish and everywhere in between. Need to know how to toast in Tagalog? Say "bottoms up" in Basque? "Down the hatch" in Hungarian? Cook teaches readers how to toast in 80 languages and includes drinking traditions, historical facts, and strange linguistic phenomena for each. Sweden, for instance, has a drinking song that taunts an uppity garden gnome, while Turkey brandishes words like Avrupalilastiramadiklarimizdanmissinizcasina . And the most valuable liquor brand in the world isn't Johnny Walker or Hennessey, but Maotai--President Nixon's liquor of choice when he visited China. Whether you're traveling the globe or the beer aisle, Cheers! will show you there's a world of fun waiting for you. So raise a glass and begin exploring!

Cook debuts with an entertaining guide on how to give a toast in nearly 80 languages. . . . It's worth raising a glass to the enthusiasm and good nature of this fun project., "Cook debuts with an entertaining guide on how to give a toast in nearly 80 languages. . . . It's worth raising a glass to the enthusiasm and good nature of this fun project."-- Publishers Weekly "A new book explores drinking traditions across cultures and languages, and how rituals of celebration have evolved around the world, through a spirited study of 80 ways to raise your glass."--Sucheta Chakraborty, Mumbai Mid-Day "Even if you have not set foot outside of your own home for over a year, this brick of a book can take you on a whirlwind worldwide tour in the comfort of that home with the potential for an additionally comforting beverage in your non-page-turning hand! . . . We all have so much to celebrate. Let's share our joys with the world."--Matt Robinson, Matt's Meals "A fascinating little book that sheds light on how different cultures raise a glass, and who, what and how they toast while doing so."-- Decanter "The collection of wry historical insights about raising a glass in 100 countries and almost that many languages is served up with keen observations on humanity and linguistics."--Babs Rodriguez, 360West "Witty and entertaining, these mini-essays are also well-researched and clever. They are sure to enliven your next glass of porto, Horchata tiger nut milk, or sorghum beer! And they also go well with Merlot."--Kevin J. Rottet, author of Comparative Stylistics of Welsh and English: Arddulleg Y Gymraeg " Cheers! is a delightful trip around the globe through shared libations. Brandon Cook brings linguistic history to each toast, telling readers not just how to make friends in any bar, pub, kharobot or izakaya on the planet, but a little more about the local history and culture--and what to drink--when you're there."--Charlie Scudder, journalist and editor of Indiana Daily Student: 150 Years of Headlines, Deadlines and Bylines "From Swedish Skol to Welsh Yeh'heed da , from Turkish No'roak to Mongolian Er'ool men'deen too'loo , from Afrikaans He'zond'heit to Elvish Almiën --this book is an unabashedly tipsy romp through the nooks and crannies of world communities and civilizations and creative imaginations. Cheers: Around the World in 80 Toasts not only celebrates our diversity but also exposes the spirit of joie de vivre at the heart of every culture."--Samrat Upadhyay, author of Arresting God in Kathmandu " Cheers! is the perfect blend of language and culture offered through a tasty window to the world. Raise a glass with local friends from Spain to Mongolia in this one-of-a kind journey."--Marjorie Herrera Lewis, author of award-winning novel When the Men Were Gone "A fascinating, frivolous, and yet deeply serious engagement with language, alcohol, tradition, and ritual. Marvelously informative and highly entertaining, Cook blends his subject matter with the delicate hand of a master whisky maker. Eons of history and culture have been perfectly distilled into this remarkable and enchanting book."--Grace Wells, award-winning poet and children's author
