Good Spanish Phrase Book for Peru
 
Hi -

Leaving for Peru in 2 weeks. I picked up a couple of Spanish Translation Phrasebooks at the library and realized that all the information in them is about Spain. Not that the translations aren't the same - but would love to have info on S.A. instead.

Anyone have suggestions for a Spanish Translation Book.p

Any basic phrasebook should work just fine.

Maybe when you are in Peru you can buy one that has more South American idioms.

I found the Collins Latin American Spanish phrasebook and accompanying CD to be extremely good and specifically cover Latin American grammar. All the phrases you will need all logically categorised.

ISBN -978-0-00-724672-4

I loaded the CD on to my iPod and listen to it on the many bus journeys we took.
