註釋The Iberian Peninsula is filled with people who love to talk and who possess an incredibly rich language with which to express themselves. This book brings you closer to these people, into their minds, their views of life, their psyche.This book centers on the spoken language of the people of Spain. Each of the phrases, idioms and slang expressions has been obtained by interviewing hundreds of Spanish nationals who have provided a valuable, up-to-date treatise on the real Spanish spoken in Spain today. All material is original - not a stale, reworked list of idioms. You can be rock-solid sure that this book IS the real language used in Spain today. Extensive notes make you an insider on many cultural aspects of Spanish life. Now you can confidently use everyday expressions, regionalisms, slang, (and even curse words); everything from "channel surfing" to "till hell freezes over." This book will tell you whether an expression is humorous, insulting, very harsh, or only used by youth, for example. You will enjoy the clear, relaxed manner in which the books reads.
