Latin American Spanish Phrase Book : Pack Mixed media product

Latin American Spanish varies greatly from European Spanish.

This pack -- containing a Gem Phrase Book and CD -- provides the perfect opportunity to hear and practise the language before you go.

The phrases are kept short and simple so that by listening two or three times, you can pick up the essentials of the language.

More and more people are travelling further afield these days and South America is high on many people's lists.

Devoted entirely to Latin American Spanish this gem is perfect for those travelling around this vast and varied continent.

Collins Gem Phrase Books are designed for ease of use, with practical, flexible phrases that can be adapted to suit the needs of the traveller.

But often, it's not the question that's the problem, it's the reply.

The CD which accompanies the Gem Phrase Book addresses this problem.

Along with the key phrases you need to get by -- simple, to-the-point and polite -- the CD gives you an idea of what the shopkeeper, the waiter, or the passerby you ask directions from may say to you.

This volume uses this unique approach to teach the reader (and listener) Latin American Spanish quickly and effectively.
