Description: |
Believed to be the most comprehensive dictionary of the dialect - sometimes called Pavee Cant, Gammon or Shelta - of the Irish Travellers |
Synopsis: |
The dictionary consists of over 1800 Pavee Cant words listed as Cant-English and English-Cant. Bearing in mind this is regarded as a 'secret' language, it is differentiated into words known to have been in use in Victorian times but not confirmed since, in the 1960s and not since confirmed and today. |
