Kraven Kor Posted July 15, 2004 Report Share Posted July 15, 2004 Re: Language Trees: Do you use them? Thieve's cant is more like slang and hidden meaning, not a language or often even a code. Take modern drug slang, for instance, where saying something as simple as "Hey, is Mary there? I owe her 40" is actually a drug deal in progress. The slang is ever changing but those "in the know" catch on pretty quick while the authorities can take some time to catch up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
