StreetSpeak, the 6th World Lexicon

This reference guide explores the slang, jargon, and borrowed languages of Shadowrun’s Sixth World. It collects terminology from more than thirty years of setting development, including runner lingo and words drawn from Sperethiel, Or’zet, and other cultures found in places such as Aztlan, the Tirs, and the Matrix. Alongside definitions, it examines how technology, major events, and generational change shape the way people communicate. The book serves as an introduction to reading, writing, and speaking the language of the shadows.
