Download or read book Madre written by Elizabeth Bakewell and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leaping off the page with energy, insight, and attitude, Liza Bakewell's exploration of language is anything but "just semantics." Why does me vale madre mean worthless, while ¡Qué padre! means fabulous, she asks? And why do one hundred madres disappear when one padre enters the room, converting the group from madres to padres? Thus begins a journey through Mexican culture in all its color: weddings, dinner parties, an artist's studio, heart-stopping taxi rides, angry journalists, corrupt politicians, Blessed Virgins, and mothers both sacred and profane. Along the way, a reader discovers not only an invaluable lexicon of Mexican slang (to be used with caution or not at all) but also thought-provoking reflections on the evolution of language; its winding path through culture, religion, and politics; and, not least, what it means-and what it threatens-to be a creative female, a madre.

Download or read book Great Little Book of Dirty Spanish Words written by John C. Rigdon and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2018-07-18 with total page 89 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: So, I had 5 years of Spanish in High School and College, only to learn that I really couldn't understand most of what I heard. It was only when I was introduced to the Spanish cuss words that I realized that there was more to Spanish expletives than "Ah Caramba!" From a strictly academic perspective this book will fill you in on the rich and varied vocabulary of Spanish vulgarities, but it should also help you to converse more effectively with your Hispanic friends. For those words and phrases which are only understood in a cultural context, we explain their usage and include sample sentences. As anyone who speaks more than one language knows, words don't always translate precisely. In Spanish that's particularly true of curse words. Many Spanish swear words and insults cover similar territory to their English counterparts. English speakers, on the other hand, might have a hard time understanding. Swear words. It's an art and science that can only be perfected with experience.
