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.
David Burke (Studio City, CA) is the author of Street Spanish 1: The Best of Spanish Slang and Street Spanish 2: The Best of Spanish Idiom. His Street French and Street Spanish books have sold over 200,000 copies.

This is a MUST read for anyone who is even slightly interested in communicating with real Spanish speaking people. The cartoons are well drawn, the scenarios are hilarious, the usage examples are realistic and very funny, the vocabulary is creative and alive, and the variables for differing countries are exact. This book demonstrates the color of Spanish ... but DO NOT take it to church!

Spanish slang at its best
17. Februar 2001
Format:Taschenbuch
Street Spanish 3 is a self-study guide to understanding the most common obscenities as they are used in different Spanish Speaking countries, therefore, this book should be an automatic addition to your collection.
Language academies generally ignore obscenities while teaching Spanish, though in real life they are all around us. Students should therefore be trained to recognise them so that they won't end up using terms, which on the surface may seem innocent, but in reality are well-disguised obscenities and insults. Fortunately, the training that is needed to prevent such occurrences can be obtained from the pages of this book, which also provides the knowledge that will allow easy recognition of these `obscene' words, whether they are used in conversations, movies or books.
This self-teaching guide will enable the student to speak with greater confidence. It presents street terms as they would be heard in real life situations through the various dialogues contained in each chapter. As done in volumes 1 and 2, synonyms, antonyms and variations of each term are provided, showing further usages so that a comprehensive mastery of the expressions is quickly acquired.
There is a special section which introduces additional slang phrases that deal with particular areas such as `vulgar insults', `name calling' and `body parts', and to top it off, there are several pages dedicated to the subject of being obscene unintentionally, where common sentences that are used and accepted in one country may have obscene or sexual overtones in another territory. This book is recommended for all travellers and students of Spanish who are serious about protecting themselves from embarrassing situations while at the same time enhancing their knowledge base.
(Having the cassettes, which are not part of the package, would be an added bonus since you would hear the dialogues being spoken by natives of Mexico, Cuba, Argentina, Peru, Puerto Rico and Colombia, providing a better feel for the language, its speech patterns and the varying pronunciations).

I was somewhat disappointed to find out that this book is remarkably similar (nearly identical) to Street Spanish 2. Had I known this, I certainly would not have purchased 3.
