Description: 

Spanish idioms with English idiomatic equivalents; most include a sentence which uses the Spanish idiom, to give the student an example.

There are 576 idioms here, and if you produce one that fits a conversational situation, the odds are good that it will make you seem much more fluent. Remember, though, that idioms are often local, and don't be surprised if, occasionally, people just look at you with confusion when you use one. Instead, view it as an excellent opportunity to produce another idiom that fits.

Thanks for the info

My wife and I have been studying Spanish for several years and use almost daily. I thought this would be a good addition but, in truth, it just sits on the shelf. Maybe I just haven't taken the time to figure out how it works, but I rarely find what I'm looking for when I pick it up. I guess I can say it's not like a dictionary.
