Riassunto

Excerpt from A Dictionary of Slang, Jargon Cant, Vol. 1: Embracing English, American, and Anglo-Indian Slang

Many, not without good excuse, find it very difficult to distinguish between technical terms not as yet recognised by lexicographers, and those which are, to all intents and purpose, firmly established.

It is worthy of notice, let it be said on passant, that the two nations at the head of the intellectual movement, England and France, have the most extensive slang vocabulary, the two being about on a par in that respect.
