Based on years of extensive research, the dictionary presents a satisfying collection of the varieties of rhyming slang found in and around English-speaking communities worldwide. It covers all forms of rhyming slang in the anglophone world by users from differing social groups and walks of life: criminals, musicians, anglers, second-hand car dealers and sheep-shearers, among many others. Besides ordinary lexical items, this work also lists nicknames and one-off expressions found in culturally valued works, from the fields of literary fiction, poetry, comics, TV and radio series, and films. Each entry is accompanied by chronologically ordered citations from a wide variety of sources (printed and otherwise) showing a word's life and currency. The scope, size and approach of this significant compilation, supported by a substantial bibliography, make it an indispensable work of reference for anyone with an interest in English slang and a key starting point for future research on the origins, social history and development of this fascinating area of the English lexicon.Topics in English linguistics ;Volume 98.English languageSlangDictionariesElectronic books.English languageSlang427.09Lillo Antonio1044254Victor TerryMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910468023803321A dictionary of English rhyming slangs2469775UNINA01404nam0 22003131i 450 UON0007767920231205102417.64991-7106-362-520020107d1995 |0itac50 baengSE|||| |||||Refugee and labour movements in Sub-saharan Africaa reviewby Jonathan Baker.
