Lessing would have liked it!
With every single one of these 100 new terms, which Mr von Aster has developed with a hand-picked team of accomplished linguistics, phonetics and German studies dropouts and compiled in this collection, this dictionary, somewhere between satire and subversion, counteracts the withering of the common vocabulary.
In the process, it contains long overdue vocabulary such as Dünkelziffer, Knobelvertrag, Mentalzigarette, Selbsthilfegrippe and Vertrauensvorschiss, whose clear definition enables both academic debate and practical application.
