Описание: It`s the most simple, unassuming, innocent-looking verb: `to be`. Yet it is jam-packed with more different meanings, forms, and uses than any other English word. As he reveals be`s multiple incarnations, David Crystal takes us to the heart of our flexible and changing language, with the help of wonderfully entertaining examples and cartoons.
