In this book, Facchinetti (2012) writes about the metaphorical journey of the English Lexicon. The book discusses the cultural identity of one word, and goes on to discuss the translatability of English phrases and metaphors. The author discusses English lexicon as it has developed on sports websites, in tourism and in law. The author also discusses English lexicon from the perspective of English language teaching.

This book is credible because it is authored by Facchinetti, Roberta. She is a full professor of English language and Linguistics at the University of Verona. Language description and pragmatics are her main interests, as she utilizes computerized corpora of both synchronic and diachronic English. The study of her work is therefore important in this research study of the long-term effects of technology on the English lexicon.
