The book "Russian-English Dictionary of Criminal Slang" is a groundbreaking resource that aims to fill a gap in Russian lexicography by providing definitions for a large body of taboo words that have been excluded from traditional dictionaries. Compiled from various sources and native informants, this dictionary offers insight into the everyday speech of many Russians, including words of obscene nature that have been historically forbidden from print. The first edition, released in 1971, sparked interest in this neglected facet of Russian language, and the second edition, with new entries and improvements, continues to serve as a valuable tool for those studying Russian slang and colloquial language. Written by D.D. Berkley and G.P., this comprehensive dictionary is a must-have for language enthusiasts and scholars alike.
