Hi readers! Thank you for visiting:)
Today, I will share you a video, which is related with the book I am reading now. The book is "The Language of Food: A linguist reads a menu" and it was written by Dan Jurafsky. In one of the chapter, I found a column written about the difference between the names of Chips and Crisps.
To make you understand clearly about the difference between them, I found a video talking about the theme. It seems to be similar within the contents of the book, so if you are interested, please watch it!
Thank you for reading!

Hair conditioner, Shaving cream, Shining steel pots, Get things unstuck, Prevent wax from sticking to a candle holder

2.How has it been localized in places far
from its origin?
Today, more than 90% of the world’s olive oil is pressed from olives grown around the Mediterranean Sea. In the early twelfth century, most of the cities in the coastal region of the Mediterranean Sea were destroyed due to the great suffer. The Phoenicians stepped into the power vacuum created in the Mediterranean by the collapse to develop extensive trading networks. And then, they started transporting wine as well as olive oil which were both able to be grown in the area. Transporting these products made the economic powerful. Not only just trading, the Phoenicians spread technological innovation, particularly in ship design, and introduced the concept of the phonetic alphabet. The origin language of English was the phonetic alphabet.
3.How is it used in world cuisines?
Salads, Italian cuisine (pasta, pizza etc.),
Roasted vegetables, French cuisine (bread, escargot etc.)

The book I am reading now:)
Nice to meet you! And thank you so much for visiting this blog.
I am a university student in Japan majoring English and I am now studying about food culture. Through this blog, I would like to introduce some tips about food cultures.
Firstly, I would like to introduce a book, that I have been reading throughout this class which lasts for half an year. The title is "The Language of Food: A linguist reads a menu" and it was written by Dan Jurafsky. Do you know it? Let me tell you about the author. He is a Professor and Chair of Linguistics and Professor of Computer Science at Stanford University, who was born in New York and brought up in California. He has written some textbooks such as "Speech and Language Processing" and the book I am introducing now, "The Language of Food: A Linguist reads a menu." Dan Jurafsky mainly studies computational linguistics, the relationships between human and machine processing and spoken language and conversation. At the same time, he works on the linguistics of food culture. From now, I would like to write about the book. There are thirteen chapters with the names of food for each chapters. Do you know how the name "ketchup" came? Did you know that this is a Chinese word? This word is now used all over the world as a global language, but it was a Chinese word with the meaning of "strained tomatoes." Isn't it interesting? And also, you can know the difference of each words, "chips", "crisps" and "french fries." I am now still reading, so I can't write the whole review, but I'll write about it sometimes when I get some more information. Don't miss it!
And that is all for today! Thank you again for visiting this blog, and reading until the end of my writing.
