Description

Explore the vast world of specialized language with Newspeak: A Dictionary of Jargon. Originally published to herald the year 1984, this comprehensive work by Jonathon Green serves as a vital resource for understanding the nuances of modern communication.

This volume covers a wide range of specific vocabularies and slangs from diverse sectors, including the media, entertainment, military, economics, and finance. It acts as a linguistic guide for those studying lexicography and a fascinating compendium for general readers interested in how different trades and professions communicate.
