GREAT BOOK "DAVE"

most people are fooled by the name,, ha ha ha . New cover I see!

the best of the lot

One thing I learned is this: don't practice these Spanish tasties with strangers in Mexico. I found out two things: they weren't amused and the dictionary was accurate. Some of the religious references were so rough I thought I'd be struck by lightning just for practicing them to myself. It is titled a dictionary of obsenities and that it is.

Spankilicious

This book is excellent for table top enjoyment. I leave it on my table in my room and everyone always picks it up for a look. Its a good conversation piece/starter. A must have.

Useable and fun.

The book is very crude and to the point, but that is what obscenities are in any language. If you really want to know what the tourists are saying or you plan on spending any amount of time where any of the subject languages are spoken, this book is a "must have."

Great fun to peruse, very useful for travelers.

I beg to disagree with VikesFan34. I've owned this book for 12 years and am consistently amused by the colorful phrases in 5 languages. I've always found it to be good for a laugh, as well as quite useful when traveling, and I can recommend it unreservedly.
