As an Italian living and working in London, I’m constantly discovering new English-isms every day: the kind of words and sayings you’d never find in a phrasebook, but hear on the street every day.
As a visual person, I find that I remember things better if I can draw them. So every time I encounter a new English-ism, I sketch it out.
Vocabographics are sketches of words and sayings you’d never find in a phrasebook, but hear on the street every day.
