While in my native Kiev a couple of weeks ago, I picked up a Dictionary of [1]Russian Vulgar Slang (Bol'shoi slovar' mata). But this was only volume 1 of a multi-volume dictionary. This roughly 200-page volume was entirely devoted to the meanings and usage of the word "[2]dick." Volume 2, devoted to [3]yet another word, is even longer. And I'm sure more volumes are in the works.
