Catch a phrase
https://www.tes.com/magazine/archive/catch-phrase-0
With a diverse community speaking 100 different languages on their doorstep, staff were able to collaborate with local people to unearth a global range of quirky phrases from Yoruba, Serbo-Croatian, Vietnamese, Polish, Creole, Abkhazian, Turkish, Japanese and Cockney rhyming slang. The phrases are displayed through animation, video, text, stories and a giant jigsaw. Visitors are invited to add their own phrases to the collection.
The exhibition runs until January 29, 2005. Tel: 020 8356 3500; email: hmuseum@hackney.gov.uk; www.hackney.gov.ukhackneymuseum
