Dictionary of Slang and Unconventional English


The Concise New Partridge presents, for the first time, all the slang terms from The New Partridge Dictionary of Slang and
Unconventional English in a single volume.

With over 60,000 entries from around the English-speaking world, the Concise gives you the language of beats, hipsters,
Teddy Boys, mods and rockers, hippies, pimps, druggies, whores, punks, skinheads, ravers, surfers, Valley girls, dudes,
pill-popping truck drivers, hackers, rappers and more.

The Concise New Partridge is a spectacular resource infused with humor and learning – it’s rude, it’s delightful and
it’s a prize for anyone with a love of language.
