The existing pirate vocabulary covers the basic words, lingo and slang you need to talk like a pirate. What you won’t get are the words you don’t know. This site seeks to uncover all the obscure & obsolete words nobody knows. So naturally, we dive right into pirate obscurity. The list is composed of very old and rare words that apply to pirating, the ships, the sea, the, nonconformity, the anarchy, and the murder, madness and mayhem. And we reveal the true nature of these savvy swashbucklers as they pillage and plunder the seven seas.

THE PIRATE DICTIONARY- real and invented words, terms & slang and expressions
Home ~ Pirates ~ Captains - Crew - Punishment
Ships ~Sails ~ Flags - Navigation ~ Food ~ Booze Gear ~ Weapons ~ Slang/Expressions
The words were invented - just like Star Trek - to build a vocabulary for the genre. The colorful words and phrases don’t come from Pirates. The authentic words refer to ships, sails, food, gear etc. These are part of the vernacular of the time period and come from nautical sources or the military. Read more here. This dictionary is formed from real words and terms used in Golden Age and the jargon for sailors and shipbuilding. The pirate specific terms come from Johnson’s nonfiction pirate reference book written in the late 17th century. See it here.
And the dictionary contains the slang you need to Talk Like a Pirate in September.
