Publisher Comments:

You've mastered Spanish slang, conquered popular idioms, yet still feel like an outsider. The reason is simple. You haven't discovered the third piece to understanding everyday spanish: popular expletives and obscenities - those back-alley words and phrases constantly used in movies, books and coversations between native speakers.

STREET SPANISH 3 is the first step-by-step guide of its kind to explore the most comon curses, vulgarities, and obscenities used in many Spanish-speaking countries. Chapters include:

  • Dating Slang
  • Nonvulgar Insults &Putdowns
  • Vulgar Insults &Name-Calling
  • Body Parts in Slang
  • Sexual Slang
  • Bodily Functions, Sounds &Smells
  • The Many Uses of "Mierda"
  • The Many Uses of "Cagar"
  • The Many Uses of "Coño"
  • The Many Uses of "Chingar" &"Joder"

  • Being Obscene Unintentionally!
