This book has been described as defining 'Buckish Slang'. This is the language of the dandies and foppes who were to be found everywhere in nineteenth-century genteel society. Its purpose was to "enable such persons to discuss improper topics even before the ladies, without raising a blush on the cheek of modesty."

This 1811 edition is based on Captain Francis Grose's 'Classical Dictionary of the Vulgar Tongue' first published in 1785, and is a dictionary of slang words. Grose was one of the first lexicographers to collect slang words from all corners of English-speaking society, not just from the professional underworld of pickpockets and bandits. So while 'The Vulgar Tongue' includes many of the words found in earlier 'scoundrels'' dictionaries (such as Head's 'Canting Academy'), it also lists a whole range of mundane slang words sure to inform the writer and researcher as well as entertain the vulgar.
