| 520 | _a"Slang and its Analogues Past and Present, Volume 3" by John S. Farmer and W. E. Henley is a historical dictionary compiled to trace and document slang and colloquial language from various social classes over a span of more than three hundred years. Written in the late 19th century, this volume offers a fascinating glimpse into the evolution of informal English language, with entries detailing the meanings, origins, and usage of diverse slang terms and their equivalents in other languages. The opening of this dictionary introduces a wide range of slang words beginning with "F" and provides detailed definitions, etymologies, and historical references. For instance, it features words like "flabbergast," which means to astound and has been cited in various literary sources since the 18th century. It also highlights unique terms such as "flimsies" referring to banknotes and "flash," which encompasses the speech and behavior of thieves. This compilation not only educates readers about the quirky and often humorous aspects of slang but also preserves the linguistic history of society's undercurrents.
