@@grahamparks1645 sort of, from what I’m lead to believe about diner waitress talk is it’s more mnemonics for short order cooks and staff to communicate where’s butcher talk is a dialect of it’s own which evolved from convict Thieve’s cant of criminals sent to the Australian colonies.

@@EclecticDD apparently it’s called Louchébem and was used in Parisian and Lyonnaise butchers up until the 1950’s or so. Interestingly it was used by members of the French resistance in order to not be discovered by the Nazis. I learnt Rehcter klat as a boy as my grandfather was a butcher here in Sydney. A mate of mine learnt it as an apprentice butcher in the 90’s but I think it’s dying out. Very few butchers understand if you ask for steluc or sgans these days. It was funny back in the day hearing a weary butcher calling an annoying customer a dratsab or a t-nuc with a straight face and seeing it occasionally backfire when said customer had a family member in the trade.

I just heard him say that they called drugs in jail 'onik' which comes from my language Shelta (Irish traveller/gypsy language) none of us call it Shelta we say The Gammon but on Wikipedia it says Shelta. Anyway 'Onik' is actually our word 'Inik' which means thing but used as a substitute for any word u wanna hide. Also really The Gammon (Shelta) isn't really a language it's literally the reminents of that old thieves Cant mixed with Irish, in fact some travellers say 'du ye wid de kant/de Gammon' meaning do you speak Shelta/the gammon. Also their word Ken which back then meant a meeting place for thieves actually now means house in our language e..g 'Gratch de keen' look at the house and really that word 'gratch' is just the word Watch with the first letter replaced by 'gr' we have that with nearly every English word in our language. Gloke:look just a mutated version of look with g added to the beginning of the word. The word Nick we turned to nawck, fuck we turned to feeck, rag which means car is gar backwards just car with g at the beginning again. Our word for girl Lackeen is the Irish word Cailín with C and L switched over - Laicín:Cailín, Lackeen:Caleen Our word gop means kiss and is Irish póg backwards our word Kam meaning son is Irish Mac backwards, our words for hands is Molya which is just a mispronunciation of Mawler as in to mawl food (to touch food) stall means stop in our language stall gratching stop looking and that's just reusing it in a different way to standard English if u stall a car youve technically stopped it right? I could go on on on but yk wat I'm proud to be a traveller and 'a loves te wid de Gammon' ( I love speaking the Cant, the Gammon, Shelta)

Much of what passes for cant in the UK is a mish mash of greek, pig latin, gaelic and common English words repurposed. You'll hear them mostly in Seaports and high density cities where trade was brisk and hence the borrowing from the continental languages. More recently we see/hear in group cant in rap/drill mixing ebonics with onomatopoeia to diguise criminal acts. However you slice it these languages live and die in a few generations as thier use waxes and wanes like fashions, with only the most useful or poignient surviving the errosion of time.

A companion piece to this could be one on the cant named Polari which incorporates some of the thieves' cant. Most people use words from this lexicon every day without being aware of that fact but the cant has a history reaching back to the 16th century according to some writers. Used with Punch and Judy, it reached its zenith with the BBC radio program Julian and Sandy which ran from 1965 to 1968. Since then there have been scattered sightings of Polari the most recent I know of being the 2020 British made-for-TV film "Roald & Beatrix: The Tail of the Curious Mouse."

Cockney rhyming slang used by Londoners stemmed from the criminal fraternity and is still widely used eg. Tom foolery is jewellery. The shovel is shovel and pick Nick or prison although there are a number of words to describe prison. There are loads of other examples and whole conversations can take place without straight goers or honest ordinary people being able to understand what is being said

I think modern vagabond pictograms (I’ve heard them called Hobo Hieroglyphics before) are the modern continuation. I wonder if literature spawned Cant out of fiction, but in turn led to them being used in real life, all the way up to modern hobo ones. Life truly imitates art eh?
