If you have ever been tempted to simply translate an English idiom/proverb literally into Spanish then this will change your mind about the wisdom of literal translation. I bought this for my daughter who works in Spain and wanted some colloquial sayings to throw into conversation as she learns the language. It is a good thing we bought it because had she literally translated some of our sayings "raining cats and dogs" for instance, it would have made no sense at all but they do have their own version of this saying and many others (sorry I cannot recall them because the book is now in Spain being well used and I am at home in UK). This will also help you to understand some sayings they have which would otherwise make no sense at all if you looked them up in a dictionary.

Collins Spanish Idioms contains 250 phrases and expressions commonly used by Spanish speakers. These are divided into 25 themes such as:

Health, Happiness, Pleasure and Enjoyment
Chance, Surprise and the Unexpected
Eating, Drinking, Drunkenness and Excess etc.

Unfortunately, the Contents Page lists these themes with the associated phrases under each theme. This makes it difficult to find a theme as you have to go through many pages of phrases. In addition the themes are not listed alphabetically.

However, the phrases are really useful and there are explanations where appropriate. This helps in understanding the Spanish Culture and makes interesting and enjoyable reading and a fun way to help improve your Spanish. It is a valuable aid in learning Spanish.

Really good for a level Spanish and if you just want to learn some fun expressions to say whilst in Spain, I would definitely recommend this to anyone studying a level Spanish as we have to use idioms in our speaking exam, but had I known about this product during GCSE'S I know it would have helped greatly
