TimeReturn to top
Time is measured in hours after sunset or sunrise. After sunset is 'clean,' after sunrise is 'dirty.' One hour is called a finger. 'Fingers' can be divided into three 20 minute periods called 'knuckles.'
| Time | Cant |
|---|---|
| 1:19 pm | 'Seventh dirty finger' |
| 2:20 pm | 'First dirty knuckle on the eighth finger' |
| 3:00 am | 'Nine clean fingers' |
| 4:45 am | 'Second clean knuckle on the tenth finger' |
| Midnight | 'Thumbs' |
| Near Sunrise | 'Gettin' dirty' |
| Near Sunset | 'Almost clean' |
| Noon | 'Six dirty fingers' |
If a thief suspects that he can be overheard, hand gestures may be used. In this case, the back of the hand is 'dirty' and the palm is 'clean.' There are hundreds of variations in this scheme. Thieves planning a crime will agree beforehand on which to use.
