Idioms & Slang Words of Argentina Volume 1 -Us Edition-

This book is not only a dictionary of the most well-known slang words and idioms used in Argentina; this book is a true survival guide for the social lives of tourists, internship students and everyone else who is on the verge of getting stuck in the spiderwebs of Argentinian's everyday conversations.
With this brief manual, you'll get these main benefits, among others:
* Don't be at sea in any conversation
* Catch on the fly double entendre sentences
* Look less "foreigner" in the eyes of natives
*Avoid getting fooled or misunderstood
Rioplatense Spanish is a tricky dialect to learn; even its verbal conjugation has its unique ways that make it difficult to deal with, even for English speakers with an advanced level of Castillian Spanish. In the way of a broad-spectrum antibiotic, this book will help you unravel the mysteries of Rioplatense Spanish at three different levels:
Section I focuses on words with multiple meanings. Did you know that in Argentina the root word "bolas"(balls) in conjunction with its derivations can be used to make sentences with at least 11 different meanings and only one of them is offensive? Here you'll find each variation of this and other words explained and exemplified with sentences both in English and Spanish.
Section II digs into the best-known words of Argentinian slang, the "lunfardo". Once again, a profuse load of sentences will do the exemplification work.
Section III, maybe the funnier of the three, will let you have a glimpse into some of the most used idioms and colloquialisms of this South American country. For each idiom you'll get a literal translation (where possible), the proper meaning of that idiom and one or more related idioms used in English-speaking countries (if any).
If you find this little book useful, don't miss out on Volume II, coming soon...
