I ended up getting these from Barnes and Noble:
I want to speak Spanish more fluently, so I decided to join a Meetup group dedicated to teaching you to converse in Spanish and understand native speakers. While I was in Barnes and Noble, I decided to browse the language section, where the original plan was to purchase a nice, wholesome, Spanish dictionary. I ended up leaving with this:
Since I want to be a well-rounded speaker of Spanish, I felt that this book was a necessary addition to my study materials. I'm lying; I just bought the book because it made me laugh. Just so you know, though, there are more than just dirty words and insults in the book; there are also common slang phrases. You never know when you will need to use some of this stuff in emergency situations. For instance, you never know when a situation will require you to call someone a "skank" (una macarra).
I don't think my teacher would like a beginner learning slang since she's trying to teach us the proper way to speak. But I have made flash cards of some of the phrases from the book that make me laugh. I'll keep these separate from the other cards.

The book says this says, "Oh no she didn't! She did not just try to mac on Susie's boyfriend!". |

Cute hat! And great thinking on getting the Spanish book. You have to know the slangs and bomb words, too, when learning a language. To show that you are very upset, you can't just keep calling someone a beast, which is the worst name calling I learned in high school French. Haha 😏

Thanks for checking out my latest project, I'm so happy the sweater fit the cute little baby!
Wow, what a Winter! Thank goodness it's warming up now. Love the hat, and oh, your Spanish dictionary is too funny! Good luck and thanks, I never thought about a Meet-up to learn Spanish. I'll have to look into that here in my town!
