The world's most isolated continent has spawned some of the most unusual words in the English language and, now, one of the most unique dictionaries. In the space of a mere century, a remarkable vocabulary has evolved to deal with the extraordinary environment and living organisms of the Antarctic and subantarctic. This is a complete guide to the origin and definitions of Antarctic words. |
