Die dampfenden Hälse der Pferde im Turm von Babel

Rate this book
In diesem Sprachspielbuch geht Franz Fühmann witzig und ideenreich folgenden Fragen nach: Wie entsteht Sprache? Was passierte beim Turmbau zu Babel? Gibt es im Deutschen ein Wort mit 16 "e"? Warum heißt die Banane "Banane"? Er liefert viele praktische Beispiele und trägt zusammen, was Literatur und Volksmund Interessantes zum Thema Sprache bieten.
