In everyday life, people often have to hear words taken from thieves' jargon. Despite the fact that they do not always sound from those people who were serving a term for a crime in prison. However, many of those who utter such words do not know their exact definition.
Here, for example, urkagan, who is this? There are not so few definitions of this term. As a rule, this is the name of a thief who robs apartments, a malicious recidivist serving a sentence for his deeds under strict regime, and an impudent criminal. More information about this term will be described in this article.
From the history
So, then, many law-abiding citizens of our country are often interested in the meaning of words taken from the thieves' jargon of those who once served their term in places of isolation from people. Here, for example, urkagan - who is this? Ordinary criminal or thief in law, or one who violates the regime of a correctional institution?
In order to understand the exact meaning of this term, it is necessary to turn to the history of its origin. There are several versions here.
Some sources say that formerly they called exiled convicts who worked from morning to night at logging and mines. After their release, they again went to steal and again found themselves in hard labor.
Then the meaning of this word was fixed and began to be used to designate all the criminals who again went to the "cause" (committed a criminal act). So it was before.
Transfer
What designation does this term currently have? Is Urkagan someone from the thieves world or just a “man” serving time for theft?
In Turkic, “urk” is a fierce and even dangerous person. Therefore, urkagan is understood here as a leader of a gang, a terrible chapter and chieftain.
Existing Synonyms
So, then, those people who do not know the designation of thieves' concepts are lost in conjecture over the question of what a term like “urkagan” means? Is it someone from the recidivists or those prisoners who were transferred from the regular regime to the intensified? Yes, it's a felon or a felon. In addition, the word "urka" is a synonym for this term. As mentioned earlier, in historical times the so-called lesson convicts. The latter performed only the most difficult work from morning to late evening.
Other versions
Impudent criminals, repeat offenders are most often called lessons. After all, it is they who fall into the field of view of police officers. In addition, those who are interested in the criminal investigation opera are called Urks.
It should also be noted that there are only a few versions of the origin of the term "urkagan":
- this is the name of the prisoner who, for his bad behavior, was sent to high security;
- Also this word is often applied to someone who was serving a limited term in a colony;
- in translation from another language, it means a thief or a thief.
Value
As a rule, urkagans never stop. After they are released, they begin to engage in their usual craft. For example, they earn a living by robbing apartments and then selling the stolen to other people or renting it to a pawnshop. This happens until the dangerous criminal is caught. That’s what urkagan is. The meaning of the word carries a certain meaning that a person will not stop even after being in the dock again and receiving a term.
As a rule, all employees of the criminal investigation department know urkagans. After all, these people after being released from places of detention are again suspected of having committed certain atrocities.
Total
The lessons are inveterate criminals who differ from other convicts in the zone with their impudent behavior. As a rule, they never go ahead of schedule to freedom. In addition, this is not necessary for the urks. After all, the more the criminal will spend time in places of isolation from people, the more he will then be respected in criminal circles.
For the lesson there are no generally accepted rules and norms of behavior. They live by their own laws. As a rule, the latter always maintain very close ties with criminal gangs and join criminal groups. In addition, ordinary civilians do not cause any respect for repeat offenders.
After all, the latter can not change their lifestyle. For impudent criminals it is considered impossible to change everything and start over. Many repeat offenders begin to steal from childhood, for which they find themselves in a colony for juvenile attackers.
Lessons do not respect police officers. In addition, the latter cause them contempt and hatred. After all, people who stand guard over the law prevent repeat offenders from robbing people and their apartments.
Thus, urkagan cannot be changed. His life is to always engage in his usual business. In other words, commit crimes again.
