内容説明
In the English language, swearing is essential to effective communication. Whether you want to succeed in business, school, or social circles, a strong command of vocabulary is absolutely necessary. English as a Second F*cking Language (ESF*L) is the perfect way for non-native speakers to learn the basics of swearing. At the same time, it also offers native speakers a wide variety of twists and new refinements. Page after page, ESF*L provides a smorgasbord of swearing synonyms designed to boost your vocabulary - everything from the conventional d*mn and sh*t to a host of more inventive terms that would make any truck driver blush. And when you're finished reading, our Final F*cking Exam is the perfect test of your swearing skills. You'll be surprised by how much you've learned!

この本はスラング、特にその中でも下品な言葉に焦点を当てて書かれています。例文も多く収録されています。
現在、このような言葉はアメリカでも特に若者によって日常的に使われており、また、映画などでも数多く使われているのでどのような表現・意味があるか知っておく必要はあります。サイズもコンパクトでページ数も少なく英語も読みやすいので映画に興味のある方、アメリカにこれから住む予定の人は是非読んでみて下さい。

英語の卑語の正しい使い方を知るための本です。
しょうもない知識を得るにはもってこいでしょう。
日本語訳が出ていたことを最近知りましたが、
細かいニュアンスがにじみ出ていますので、
やっぱり無理してでも原著を読むべきだと思います。

Laugh your a** off.
2001/7/13
形式:ペーパーバック|Amazonが確認した購入
Be prepared to laugh and ride the humorous wave with Sterling Johnson.
In the 1970's, George Carlin cited seven words that would never appear on TV, but time and theatrical productions have changed their acceptability. Unfortunately, I cannot list them in this review because they would not be suitable, but they are listed on page 8 of this book.
Cable TV followed the lead when they began showing these R+ rated movies. Language that was not conventional when Carlin clarified what the "bad" words were is now common in conversations.
His and Hers, Hands on experience, Tips and Traps are just a few of the sections that provide alternate words for different body parts and actions. Throughout the book, Johnson gives examples through dialogue. The goal is to help the newcomer with a way to understand what f*ck and other derivatives mean, and which ones are fighting words.
Writers will find this book is a clear definition of how to write true to life dialogue for today's market.
I was expecting a different outlook than definitions of "bad" words, so I was somewhat disappointed. However, this is a valuable resource that is well written and funny.

Funniest book I've read in years.
1998/12/3
形式:ペーパーバック
This is the funniest book I've read in years. This year I'm giving copies to all my friends with open minds (and to a few narrow-minded people who need to lighten up).
I picked up some great expressions I'd never heard before and scored 100% on the final exam at the end of the book, which is a classic in itself.
The dialogues are hilarious, just the thing for aspiring actors to use as practice exercises.
I'd love to see the author on "Politically Incorrect." He'd fit right in.
Maybe they'll make a movie of the book. After all, they made a movie about "Pi." If they ever did make the movie, Bill Murray would be perfect as Sterling Johnson.
I don't know how many times I've picked this book up and read passages aloud to friends. They are always delighted, although some pretend to be shocked.
It's a gem.
