Book Description
Everything you wanted to know about Spanish but were afraid to ask your teacher. You'll rarely hear the colloquial Spanish of everyday conversation and commerce--the stuff you really need to get by--in the language classroom. The Street Spanish Series fills this gap. The third guide in the series provides 10 easy lessons on expletives, euphemisms, and obscenities. Each lesson features a dialogue demonstrating conversational usage of vocabulary, lists of synonyms and antonyms, word games, crossword puzzles, and self-tests. Covers insults (vulgar and non-vulgar), popular obscenities, unintentional obscenities, vulgar gestures, criminal slang, and more.
*Glossary includes English definitions of each Spanish word.
