Whether they're ordering a slice in Little Italy or riding along the Grand Canal, this book will be a reader's guide to truly spitting the sauce. A collection of slang and expressions that could make Tony Soprano blush, this book helps non-native speakers sound like they just got off the boat. Each entry provides an individual foreign gem, a useful Italian sentence employing the word, the expression's English counterpart, and its literal translation. Complete with up-to-date curses, slang, and idiomatic expressions, the words and phrases are split into different situation-based sections, so the reader will always know what to say--no matter where they are.
