Who was Peri Cotgrave?
Peri Cotgrave was an influential English lexicographer and scholar, best known for his work on the "A Dictionarie of the French and English Tongues," first published in 1611. His dictionary was notable for its extensive vocabulary and focus on idiomatic expressions, serving as a valuable resource for English speakers learning French and vice versa. Cotgrave's work contributed to the understanding and appreciation of the French language in England during the early 17th century. He is recognized for his efforts in bridging linguistic and cultural gaps between the two languages.
What is another phrase for the idiom burn the midnight oil?
=== === To work late into the night. Originally this was by the light of an oil lamp or candle. More recently, the phrase is used figuratively, alluding back its use before electric lighting. The English author Francis Quarles wrote in Emblemes, 1635: Wee spend our mid-day sweat, or mid-night oyle;Wee tyre the night in thought; the day in toyle. At that time there was a verb for working late by candlelight - elucubrate. Henry Cockeram defined that in his The English dictionarie, or an interpreter of hard English words, 1623: "Elucubrate, to doe a thing by candlelight." Clearly, we no longer have much call for that word and it has fallen out of use. Although it is probably some years since anyone needed to do it in reality the phrase 'burning the midnight oil' is still in everyday use. Porter Wagoner and Dolly Parton released an album called The Right Combination/Burning the Midnight Oil, in 1972.
