• The term "argot" has been directly lifted from
the French.
• In French, it refers specifically to the
vocabulary used by criminals and thieves.
• The original meaning of the term
has widened since it was
borrowed from the French,
although the association with
low-life remains.
• A specialized vocabulary or set of
idioms used by a particular social
class or group, especially one that
functions outside the law.
• Many groups that are marginalized anyway
use language which is heavily weighted with
argot to highlight their differences.
As a result, many people associate the
vocabulary with the lower classes, criminality,
and geeks, considering it a "hermetic
language" that promotes isolation rather than
togetherness.
