It’s really funny but…
I’m Argentinian and bought this as a present but had to read it first. It’s REALLY funny! I loved most of it. However, it does have a few spelling mistakes and some of the definitions are not correct like the “manicero” definition. Overall, it’s a funny book

Fun
This little book had me laughing so much. I am an Argentinean that has lived in the US for 10 years. Reading it actually was so much fun. I do not know how fun would be for an American, yet to try that. But for me was awesome. Is very short too. You kind of want more after u are done

Accurate, humorous, and instructive
I am Argentine-born but have lived in the US for 37 years. I found the book very comprehensive and accurate as a dictionary. I felt it could do better at detailing the etymology of words but I guess the author put greater weight on brevity than on thoroughness. The illustrations are very good but more of the words would have benefited from showing the gesture associated with them. Overall a great primer for Anglos who want to understand the Rioplatense branch of Spanish.

Not really a guide
This is a dictionary of Argentine Spanish words and expressions. The only "guide" parts of it are a few pages at the introduction and at the entry for "mate." I don't think anyone hoping to learn Argentine Spanish could learn much from reading these dictionary entries without context.

Gooo Quality + price
So glad with the seller, the arrived two days before than the expected date. I was concerned that the book maybe was not bringing the illustrations, I was so happy to see it comes with them, the book is perfect and feels like good quality taking into consideration the price, I’m happy with my purchase, thank you!!I bought it for a Spanish friend that never understands me when I speak (I’m Argentinian) it was a funny gift and is also good for those who want to learn slang words and signs

Good and funny one!
Funny written phrases of Argentinians… nothing too deep but nice to have for expats to understand the Argentinians a bit more maybe
