Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Glossary of French Slang The following glossary will be found to contain the great bulk of words - or word-uses - belonging to that ill-defined region of the French language commonly referred to as 'popular' or slang, including the majority of the so-called War terms. A number of words and phrases now probably obsolete or obsolescent have been included for the reason that the authors in whose pages they are to be found continue to be read and enjoyed. Much that is low and vulgar has of necessity been granted right of place; words merely obscene, however, have been denied an entry. I have tried, by cross-references and comparisons with English and sometimes with German, and by supplying English equivalents whenever I was able, to make this book something more than a mere glossary. While it is intended in the first place as an aid to the reader of modern French literature, I am not without hope that it may prove of use also to the philologist, and now and again throw an interesting light on the psychology of the French and of the English-speaking races. I wish to point out, however, that this book has not been compiled to enable the reader to indulge in a wealth of 'idiomatic' French.
