The Vulgar Tongue is a book published in 1857 by Anglicus, Ducange. The book comprises two glossaries of slang, cant, and flash words and phrases. The first glossary contains words and phrases used by criminals and the lower classes in England during the 16th and 17th centuries. The second glossary contains words and phrases used by the same groups during the 18th and 19th centuries. The book provides a comprehensive look at the language used by these groups during these time periods and offers insight into their culture and way of life. It is a valuable resource for historians, linguists, and anyone interested in the history of the English language.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
