"Acknowledging that some of these words may offend, slang collectors Dalzell (US) and Victor (Wales) present some 3,000 words drawn from their New Partridge Dictionary of Slang and Unconventional English (2005). Entries on terms from "anal" to "zooms" feature the UK spelling except for foreign and pidgin words, a concise definition, country of origin, and dated citation. Highlighted boxes feature synonyms and related terms for selected words. Offensive perhaps, but certainly educational!" -- Book News Inc., August 2008
