Book Reviews of Dictionary of German Slang and Colloquial Expressions (Dict of Foreign Lang. Slang)
Book Review: Very Funny
Summary: 5 Stars
This little book is worth the $10 for entertainment value alone. This is a funny book. I know a little German, and I have actually heard a few of these words before. Only now I know what they mean. I do agree however with a couple of other reviewers that you probably shouldn't say too much of this stuff in public. Still worth it though! The most fun I've had with a book in a long time.
Summary of Dictionary of German Slang and Colloquial Expressions (Dict of Foreign Lang. Slang)
Travelers with intermediate-level knowledge of German, and language students on intermediate and advanced levels will value this book as a key to getting past the slang barrier and grasping German and its idioms as people actually speak the language. More than 4,000 words or colloquial expressions seldom found in standard bilingual dictionaries are listed alphabetically and defined. A phrase or short sentence is presented in German to give readers a sense of the word or expression as it is used in various contexts, and is followed with an English translation. Because of the nature of the subject matter, books in this series necessarily contain expressions that some readers will find offensive.Language Experience Approach Books
