Bernadette Hince: The Antarctic Dictionary: A Complete Guide to Antarctic English (2000)

In the space of a century, a remarkable vocabulary has evolved to deal with the environment and living organisms of the Antarctic and subantarctic. The Antarctic Dictionary is a guide to the origin and definitions of its words, containing more than 15 000 quotations from about 1000 different sources. It is aimed both at those curious about this continent and those fascinated by the development of language.
