	The Thieves Guild - The Thieves Cant - Advanced - Introduction
		Vowel sounds in Cant are sounded the same way as in these English words: "a" as in bad; "e" as in bed; "i" as in bid; "o" as in lone; "u" as in suit; and "y" as in sly.
		For the purpose of this introduction to the language, the written conventions of the English language are used to "spell" the Cant words.
		All Cant nouns are given in the singular form, and plural forms of those nouns are produced by simply doubling the word.

		Now, the clerk may believe that she can't change the rules, so for her, it really is "can't." But of course, she started by saying "we." By permitting her to absolve herself of responsibility, the manager is encouraging her front line people to act like cogs, not like thinking, caring people.
		One of his posts today, Can't VS Won't, he really struck a chord with me. In part he says, Sometimes, precise language can change an organization.
		Isnt it frustrating when someone tells you that something cant be done but what they are really saying is that they wont do it.Last year, Seth Godin has a great posting about the differences between cant and wont.

		It is noteworthy that modern Dutch thieves' cant, as presented in the dictionary of I.
		As the prevailing tendency of words is toward degradation of meaning, one of the most frequently recurring needs of language is that of words of dignified and serious import to take the place of those which have become cheapened through ignoble use.
		One example of this is prig (a distinct word from the term of thieves' cant already mentioned), which originally denoted a person over-scrupulous in his attire and demeanour, but has now acquired a different sense, in which it supplies a real need of the language.

	Georgette-Heyer.com - Who is she?
		Although Jane Austen published during this period (1811 - 1820), she was writing contemporaneously while Heyer was making very well-researched historical fiction, full of all you could ever want: romance, fashion, upper classes, cross-dressing, arranged marriages, murder, intrigue, cant language, sarcasm and humour!
		If you are a Heyer addict and want to join in some discussions of her books and what you liked best/worst, think about joining the Georgette Heyer Listserv.
		The Listserv also has a respository of, among many other pages, a list of cant expressions that Heyer uses.
