New Spanish dictionary of insults
larger | smaller
By h.b. - May 19, 2006 - 5:04 PM
The new dictionary contains insults from both Spain and Latin America

A new dictionary containing just insults, has just been published in Spanish. Put together by two Argentineans, the journalist Sergio Bufano and the poet, Jorge Perednik, it contains some of the most popular expressions from both Spain and Latin America.

‘Diccionario de la Injuria’, was put together after four years of research and the authors note that when it comes to insults there are plenty of references to the mother, and derogatory terms about women in general.

Emphasis on alleged sexual norms was also noted.
