Great Little Book of Dirty Spanish Words

So I had 5 years of Spanish in High School and College only to learn that I really couldn't understand most of what I heard. It was only when I was introduced to the Spanish cuss words that I realized that there was more to Spanish expletives than Ah Caramba! From a strictly academic perspective this book will fill you in on the rich and varied vocabulary of Spanish vulgarities but it should also help you to converse more effectively with your Hispanic friends. For those words and phrases which are only understood in a cultural context we explain their usage and include sample sentences. As anyone who speaks more than one language knows words don't always translate precisely. In Spanish that's particularly true of curse words. Many Spanish swear words and insults cover similar territory to their English counterparts. English speakers on the other hand might have a hard time understanding. Swear words. It's an art and science that can only be perfected with experience.
