Summary
"This book will enable students who have achieved basic competence in Spanish to develop, broaden, and enhance their awareness of the richness of Spanish and Spanish-American vocabulary. It can be used in schools, further education, or at undergraduate level. It will also be of interest to teachers, and to other professional linguists seeking convenient access to the finer nuances of the Spanish language. This is the first guide to Spanish synonyms to be produced specifically for English-speaking students of Spanish. It presents in an easily accessible form information not readily available in traditional dictionaries. It contains a wide variety of material, formal and informal (even vulgar), literary and practical. It pays attention throughout to variations between Iberian and American Spanish, with special reference to Mexican and Argentinian forms. The tabular layout is designed for maximum ease of reference, and gives information on register, sample contexts, and English equivalents for each Spanish item. There are four indexes enabling the user quickly to locate any given Spanish or English word."
