Diccionario de Americanismos Book Description
“In spite of the differences, we all speak the same language. An essential reference tool for all Spanish-speakers interested in gaining an in-depth understanding of their language, and for those interested in the differences between the Spanish that is spoken in their country and the Spanish spoken by neighboring countries. The dictionary includes words that are native to the Americas as well as those that originated in Spain but whose meaning has been modified. It also lists words that although no longer used in Spain, are kept alive in the different varieties of Latin American Spanish.”
