Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

If a native Spanish speaker were to tell you that the pez gordo (fat fish) met a merengue (meringue) with lots of pasta (noodles) who is going to become his media naranja (half an orange), you may not know whether to offer your condolences or your congratulations — that is, unless you’ve read this first book in David Burke’s Street Spanish series. Street Spanish 1 lets you quickly become an insider by presenting some of the most popular slang terms used throughout the many Spanish-speaking countries. With the help of entertaining dialogues, word games and drills, crossword puzzles, and word searches, you’ll finally be able to understand the everyday language used on the street, in homes, offices, stores, and among family and friends.

Synopsis:

Geared for the student who has had three or more years of Spanish study, this is a step-by-step approach to teaching the actual spoken language of the Spanish-speaking world that is constantly used in movies, books, and day-to-day business.
