Here are some of our favourite examples of Victorian Slang which I think should make a come back. Honestly, Victorian’s had some of the most bizarre and hilarious words you’ve ever heard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
These examples are from the ‘Passing English of the Victorian era, a dictionary of heterodox English, slang and phrase<\/em>‘ which was complied and written by James Redding Ware (1909), the pseudonym of British writer Andrew Forrester. <\/p>\n\n\n\n So let’s turn back the clock and have a light-hearted chuckle at some amazing Victorian slang terms!.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
