About this ebook
Are you a fan of all things British, or perhaps someone confused by the language on British TV?
Maybe you're daydreaming about a future visit to the United Kingdom, or you already have British friends and want to add some flair to your conversations with the latest slang, swear words, and insults.
Put the Kettle On offers a playful exploration of life in the UK, going beyond the typical stereotypes. Dive into the intricacies of British culture, language, customs, and food. The book covers essential topics like driving, food and shopping, pubs, restaurants, drinking culture, holidays, troubleshooting, and what not to say.
To make your journey even smoother, the book includes a comprehensive British-to-US translation list, featuring the most up-to-date words and phrases. Keep in mind, though, that while the book is packed with useful information about the UK, it's not meant to be your only travel guide. It's best enjoyed by those who don't take themselves too seriously!
With illustrations by Artist Andrew Wilson.
