Author Description

To most out-of-towners New Yorkese is a foreign language, unintelligible without this handy dictionary. To help you get around town, this book contains dozens of words and phrases you won't find in Webster or anywhere else but New York City. New Yorkers say what they think and the way they say it is expressed in New Yorkese. It is blunt, straightforward and spoken at machine-gun speed. It gets New Yorkers what they want and it will do the same for you when you visit the Big Apple. Besides, it is very funny!
