This is a nifty little volume filled with everyday slang from "What's Up?" to "F*%# Off!" with anything and everything you can imagine in between. To say this is "street Spanish" would be putting it mildly. My daughter, who took Spanish for three years in school, was shocked and dismayed by this book, and then asked if she could have it to carry in her purse. LOL Interesting and informative for a mild mannered gringo like myself. (

Epigraph

Dedication

To my father, who taught me the lurid joys of profanity; to my mother, who taught me the inward satisfaction of pedagogy; and to you, dear reader, for paying me to combine the two.

First words

This book was written with the assumption that you already know enough Spanish to get by.
