The Drinker's Dictionary : ウィキペディア英語版 | The Drinker's Dictionary The Drinker's Dictionary is a list of 228 "round-about phrases" to describe drunkenness. It was published January 6, 1737 (1736 Old Style) in the ''Pennsylvania Gazette''.〔(From the Writings of Benjamin Franklin in the ''Pennsylvania Gazette'' 1736–1737 )〕 The Pennsylvania Gazette publication is attributed to Benjamin Franklin and appears in his memoirs; however, a very similar wordlist appears in the New England Weekly Journal on July 6, 1736 and differences between the two suggest earlier origins by a different author.〔http://americanspeech.dukejournals.org/cgi/content/abstract/81/2/164〕 Franklin deemed drunkenness as a vice that could never be a virtue, so various terms and phrases were created to mask the inappropriateness of the act. ==References==
