The University of Chicago Spanish-English Dictionary, Sixth Edition Reviews

This new edition stresses the malleability of both the American version of English and the Latin American version of Spanish.... While the task of cataloguing regionalisms across Latin America is daunting, this dictionary does capture much of its slang, and even sometimes off-color usage, making the book as warm as its easygoing typeface. -Publishers Weekly
