3.0 out of 5 stars Fun, useful, and, usable, despite the typos, July 5, 2009
This review is from: Che Boludo: A Gringo's Guide to Understanding the Argentines (Paperback)
This book is absolutely riddled with typos in the English text; not mistakes by an English-language learner but mistakes by a lazy copy editor. Even still, there is plenty of information about Rioplatense Spanish usage and slang, and some interesting cultural sidenotes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic, October 10, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Che Boludo: A Gringo's Guide to Understanding the Argentines (Paperback)
This book is absolutely fantastic. I am planning on spending a few months in Argentina next year and wanted to learn some lingo to impress my family over there. My parents, who are both Argentinians, were in stitches laughing when I started repeating lines from the book. They said it was absolutely spot on and that the phrases are still used everyday. The hand actions are great too!
