Anti-language

An anti-language or cant is the language of a social group which develops as a means of preventing people from outside the group understanding it. It may use the same vocabulary and grammar, but in an unorthodox fashion. Examples of anti-languages include cockney rhyming slang, CB slang, the grypsera of Polish prisons, thieves' cant, Polari, and possibly Bangime.
