Want rice and Aberdeens for dinner? Or andy mcnish--wouldn't that be apples and spice? It's rhyme time, and this witty, wildly inventive dictionary will inform you those "code words" stand for beans, fish, and nice. Amazingly detailed, it includes a history of rhyming slang, 100 categories, and over 2,500 phrases. Best of all, it takes a "bilingual" approach that lets you learn new slang while looking up the old!
