Hey all,

I had to post this somewhere. I got such a crack out of these pages today, PLUS this is very useful vocabulary to have. Engage in any conversation with a bunch of Spaniards over a few beer and no doubt they'll be busting out some of this slang. I love the frankness of the definitions:

Spanish Slang (http://www.notam02.no/~hcholm/altlang/ht/Spanish.html)

Basque Slang (http://www.notam02.no/~hcholm/altlang/ht/Basque.html)

Catalan Slang (http://www.notam02.no/~hcholm/altlang/ht/Catalan.html) (they'll love you for using it too)

... and even Galician Slang (http://www.notam02.no/~hcholm/altlang/ht/Galician.html)

Fantastic links!!

There's lot's of new stuff I saw there which advances be from being a mere amature in offensive language with my Spanish friends and co-workers to being a consumate professional.

They'll wonder where I heard these words though, as they're reluctant to teach me rude and offensive language for some reason...

... sure they'll be impressed though!!

Sorry, i'm new here, probably will be doing a proper introduction tomorrow but...
Gathering from the question in the poll, not a lot of people here are really used to talking spanish?
