Ahoi,
So there are various forms oc groups like the mafias use to communicate.The ndrangheta in italy use(d) Baccagghju and recently i heard that some groups used to adopt some kind of whistling "language"(there are real whistling languages,but i think that this one has just limited vovabulary and grammar) for their "talks" on the telephone. In germany Ringvereine use drotwelsch until the 60s and other groups in europe also have and had their special forms of communication(and i dont mean pizzini). have there ever been similar forms in the USA? any ideas?

Nobody? Come on this was funny as hell. Did you all get it? Colombos speak Pig Latin. Pig Latin=informants talking to the cops (pigs)? The hell with yas. Personally I thought that was in pork taste. I'm surprised that you squealed.

Costello:Why dont you take the old iltalian fiat pills?you want me to sent over a box of em? made man:You know i cant sawllow them big pills. is this the normal way LCN members talk about buisness?in the book the author says this is about greasing someone... .

I've never come across one and really, there shouldn't be one. But in Sicily, they don't use the word mafia or cosa nostra between one another. They have a hand gesture to the face indicating someone is mafia. Then there is a hand gesture that someone has flipped, another hand gesture to indicate that someone was arrested. There's tons of them.
