Pedlars' French The slang of the Romany folk. Even Bracton uses the word Frenchman as a synonym of foreigner, and it is not long since that everyone who could not speak English was called a Frenchman. The Jews, with a similar width, used the word Greek.
"Instead of Pedlars' French, gives him plain language."- Beaumont and Fletcher: Faithful Friends, i. 2. Source: Brewer's Dictionary.
