Spanish: English Dialect Dictionary

About this ebook
The Spanish language is spoken by 480 million people in about 20 countries. It is also spoken as a second language by an additional 75 million people, putting it in the top five most spoken languages in the world. Because of this, Spanish will pick up and use words from indigenous languages or borrow from other languages encountered creating some variations of words used in conversation.
Designed for students of the Spanish language at all levels of learning, this dictionary will cover as many dialect variations of the Spanish language as possible, including slang and colloquial language to help you understand or be understood when you visit various Spanish speaking countries.
Updates to this publication will be made every month, so be sure to return and download to have the latest copy.
