The culmination of 40 years of compiling words, phrases and their definitions by a widely traveled former musician and journalist, "Naz's Underground Dictionary" is an invaluable reference for hospitals, law enforcement officials, journalists, psychologists & psychiatrists, screenwriters, attorneys, athletic departments, social service agencies, writers' groups, linguists and language researchers. Years of association with various cultures and subcultures has provided the author with the base to publish this unique collection of slang. Daily changes in our society offer a new array of terms being used by those who choose to be antiestablishment and out of the mainstream society. Contained in this lexicon are more than 9,000 words and phrases with 35,000 definitions of the terminology of the underworld and criminal elements, prison inmates, drug culture, ethnic groups, carnivals, circuses, prostitutes, musicians, streetgangs, gamblers, horseracing, boxing, hippies, bohemians, Beatniks, travelers of the road, and many generational subcultures. Many definitions are noted by era, locale and by which sub-culture the term is used. Examples of usage in context are common. An appendix provides a brief series of episodes illustrating how this slanguage might be used on the street. This book is not only a valuable reference for professionals but an often humorous look at our slang language of the past century and more.

The Routledge Dictionary of Modern American Slang offers the ultimate record of modern, post WW2 American Slang. The 25,000 entries are accompanied by citations that authenticate the words as well as offer examples of usage from popular literature, newspapers, magazines, movies, television shows, musical lyrics, and Internet user groups. Etymology, cultural context, country of origin and the date the word was first used are also provided. In terms of content, the cultural transformations since 1945 are astounding. Television, computers, drugs, music, unpopular wars, youth movements, changing racial sensitivities and attitudes towards sex and sexuality are all substantial factors that have shaped culture and language. This new edition includes over 500 new headwords collected with citations from the last five years, a period of immense change in the English language, as well as revised existing entries with new dating and citations. No term is excluded on the grounds that it might be considered offensive as a racial, ethnic, religious, sexual or any kind of slur. This dictionary contains many entries and citations that will, and should, offend. Rich, scholarly and informative, The Routledge Dictionary of Modern American Slang and Unconventional English is an indispensable resource for language researchers, lexicographers and translators.
