The Probert Encyclopaedia of Slang

Preface to the 2009 Edition


The definition of slang varies from source to source, however the generally accepted definition among the public is of language
which is very informal (that is more so than colloquial language which is simply informal) or much below the standard level of
education. Hence the dividing line between slang and colloquialisms is very fine, and moving. Many terms start as slang, and
become adopted as standard language. Similarly, the precise meanings of slang terms varies through the ages. Because the term
slang also encompasses vocabulary not in general use, many dialectal words may also be considered slang. The origin of the word
slang is unsure, but one source suggests that it derives from the Norwegian 'slengja' meaning to sling or to cast. The original use
of the term slang in English applied to a peculiar jargon employed by rogues and vagabonds, and this usage remained in use until
the 17th century. Subsequently respectable trades and professions adopted their own jargons which also became known as slang.

The Probert Encyclopaedia of Slang is a comprehensive glossary of over 15,000 English language slang and dialect terms from
around the world, including: American slang, Australian slang, British slang, Canadian slang, South African slang, Cockney
rhyming slang, Irish slang, Scottish slang, Jamaican slang, theatre slang, bingo slang, military slang and local English slang.

SLANG
The definition of slang varies from source to source, however the generally accepted definition among the public is of language
which is very informal (that is more so than colloquial language which is simply informal) or much below the standard level of
education. Hence the dividing line between slang and colloquialisms is very fine, and moving. Many terms start as slang, and
become adopted as standard language. Similarly, the precise meanings of slang terms varies through the ages. Because the term
slang also encompasses vocabulary not in general use, many dialectal words may also be considered slang. The origin of the word
slang is unsure, but one source suggests that it derives from the Norwegian 'slengja' meaning to sling or to cast. The original use
of the term slang in English applied to a peculiar jargon employed by rogues and vagabonds, and this usage remained in use until
the 17th century. Subsequently respectable trades and professions adopted their own jargons which also became known as slang.
