GUEST,Paul Folklore: Is Shelta a secret language? (13) RE: Folklore: Is Shelta a secret language? 14 Sep 11

Not that it discredits any points above (I agree with both Nerd and Larry), but Shelta isn't typically spoken among travellers anymore. My sister married into a traveller family and she was saying that its barely spoken with the exception of when you need to keep something secret. Shes picked up a few words of it for the sake of misdirecting police and what not.
