Unlike its predecessor, a <br /> two-volume, 2000-plus-page tome, the Conciseedition is a much slimmer-and also <br /> more affordable-one-volume work. In addition to all the slang terms included in <br /> the previous publication, the editors have added several hundred new words to <br /> this dictionary, for a total of over 60,000 entries. Arranged alphabetically, <br /> the dictionary lists the word or phrase, the part of speech, a brief definition, <br /> sometimes the history of the phrase, the originating country, and an approximate <br /> date of origin. Phrases are chosen from numerous English-speaking countries, <br /> including the United States, the U.K., South Africa, and even Antarctica. Some <br /> of the terms have become international, while others have not migrated from <br /> their country of origin. Also, while some phrases have dropped out of common <br /> usage, other words are still understood after several centuries. All the slang <br /> terms from the previous book have been preserved, but the smaller format <br /> requires certain concessions. Although the headword is easily legible in bold <br /> print, the font becomes progressively smaller as you move through the citation. <br /> Readers may find the date difficult to read. The full-scale edition also cites <br /> examples of the phrase used in documentaries, movies, fiction, or literature.<br /> <br /> Table Of Contents<br /> <br /> List of contributors vii<br /> Preface ix<br /> Acknowledgements xiii<br /> Observations on slang and unconventional English xv<br /> Entries A to Z 1<br /> Numeric slang 721<br /> <br /> Product Details<br /> <br /> * ISBN: 0415212596<br /> * ISBN-13: 9780415212595<br /> * Format: Hardcover, 760pp<br /> * Publisher: Taylor &amp; Francis, Inc.<br /> * Pub.
