Words like 'bunny' (rather like a bun), or 'cherish' (rather like a chair), 'Cardiology' (the study of knitwear) or 'buggery' (the study of insects), 'Venezuala' (a gondola with a harpoon) or 'Norway' (a Geordie exclamation of surprise), 'ivy' (the Roman for "four") or 'faculty' (cockney for "there's no more PG Tips").Thanks to The Complete Uxbridge English Dictionary you can now use familiar, everyday words in total confidence, fully appraised of their latest meanings. Happy wording!Trade ReviewIf the 2016 lexicon is just too bleak, take refuge in the most comprehensive list of Uxbridge definitions to date from the wags at BBC Radio 4’s I’m Sorry I Haven’t a Clue. -- Stocking Filler of the Year * The Times *
