Includes nearly 6,000 entries and over 7,000 definitions, with many examples to illustrate their use, and there a Spanish and English translation for all Mexican words and expressions. Includes all entries listed in the Spanish Royal Academy and over 300 actual examples from the works of renowned Mexican authors such as Carlos Fuentes, Elena Poniatowska, Juan Rul fo, and many others. For this book the author has drawn from his experience in Mexico (he holds a bachelors degree from the Universidad de las Américas in Mexico City) and his three year residence in Madrid (where he received his PH. D. in Romance, Philology) to differentiate between standard Spanish and the Spanish spoken in Mexico.
