A book by Howard Rheingold containing words and phrases from a multitude of languages, whose definitions are not easily translatable to English. A wonderfully written book which includes such words as tartle (A Scottish word meaning to hesitate in recognizing a person or a thing) and uffda (A Swedish exclamation of sympathy when some one injures themselves).
