Jibber Jabber & Giffle Gaffle: A Collection of Salacious Slang and Popular Profanities Through the Ages | Elanor Clarke

2 posts | 1 read | 3 to read

Quip like a quill driver, banter like a bitch booby and swear like a shabbaroon with the help of this illustrated dictionary of long-lost words and phrases. This carefully compiled volume contains the most amusing and imaginative vocabulary from the murky Middle English of Chaucer right up to the more eloquent but equally obscure parlances of the early 1900s - essential for all lovers of weird and wonderful wordage!

so-so

There are books out there that have done better job at talking about old slang thanks this one did, but I had a lot of fun reading it anyway. Really enjoyed the insult, "go to hell and help your mother make bitch pie!"
