| Current Americanisms: A Dictionary Of Words And Phrases In Common Use (1897) is a comprehensive reference book that provides an extensive list of words and phrases that were commonly used in America during the late 19th century. The book is written by T. Baron Russell, an American lexicographer and journalist, who compiled the dictionary based on his observations of the American language and culture of that time.The dictionary is organized alphabetically and includes over 2,000 entries, each with a brief definition and an example of its usage. The entries cover a wide range of topics, including slang, colloquialisms, idioms, and regional expressions. The book also includes a section on proper names and a list of abbreviations commonly used in America.The dictionary provides a fascinating insight into the language and culture of late 19th century America. It captures the unique expressions and idioms that were used by Americans during that time, many of which have since fallen out of use or been replaced by newer terms. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the English language and the evolution of American culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
