BE Slang Dictionary

Dear Friend,
Jimena, here. Welcome to the Bueno, entonces... Argentine Slang Dictionary.
You signed up to receive this Dictionary because it intrigued you - you wanted a little
insight into the culture of the Spanish speaking world. You thought this might be an interes-
ting way to learn something new about the Spanish language. Am I right? Yes, I am.
Well, guess what? You are already on your way to learning Spanish the best way possible.
It has been proven that if you are interested and intrigued by the material, you will absorb
more and remember what you learned.
That’s why I have put together a list of all the Argentine slang words that I could think of. I
know you’ll remember at least the really important ones.
If you like your Slang Dictionary, you’ll love “Bueno, entonces...” - the Spanish Language
Series that I teach. The 30 class set is designed to keep you interested and entertained as
you learn conversational Spanish.
So, enjoy your dictionary and maybe I’ll see you around.
Besos,
Jimena & the Bueno, entonces... Team
