HIDE THIS SPANISH BOOK

THE INITIATION

Admittance to Latino culture requires more than just knowing a handful of expressions. If you really wanna get in, you've gotta know slang, street speak, and swear words. Hide This Spanish Book has what it takes so you can talk the talk. No grammar lessons, verb conjugations, or any rules here--just the language that's actually spoken in Latin America and Spain today--from the most intimate encounters (and, yeah, we're talking sex) to technology know-how (e-mail, IM, text messaging).

STUFF YOU GOTTA KNOW

It's assumed you already know a little bit of the Spanish language. Most of the expressions provided can be applied to both guys and girls. You'll see [M] if the word or phrase can be applied to guys alone and [F] when it's for girls only.

In case you're uncertain about how to pronounce something in the book and don't want to sound like a fool, go on-line: www.berlitzbooks.com/hidethisbook.htm and listen up. You may want to lower the volume. . .


We're dealing with real-life Spanish in this book and, therefore, we tell you what the closest English equivalent is--so you know when to use each word, phrase, or expression.

You'll also find these features throughout the book:

UN-CENSORED Slang that's really vulgar or shocking

FACT Cool facts that may seem like fiction

THE SCOOP Tips on what's hot and what's not

FINALLY

You know that language is constantly changing--what's in today may be out tomorrow. So, if you come across anything in this book that's no longer said, or learn a cool expression that hasn't been included, let us know; we'd love to hear from you. Send us an email: comments@berlitzbooks.com. We'll add any hot new expressions to our website--go to www.berlitzbooks.com/hidethisbook.htm to check it out.

This book isn't labeled Un-Censored for nothing! This isn't the language you wanna use around your boss, relatives, or your new boy- or girlfriend's parents. . .got it? The stuff that's in here is pretty hot. If you wanna say it in public, that's up to you. But we are not taking the rap (like responsibility and liability) for any mistakes you make--these include, but are not limited to, verbal abuse, fist fights, smackdowns, and/or arrests that may ensue from your usage of the words and expressions in Hide This Spanish Book.
