Curiosidades, bulos, novedades, falsos amigos y otras cuestiones para disfrutar de la lengua española.¿Qué palabras están transformando nuestro mundo? ¿Almóndiga y cocreta están aceptadas? ¿Cuáles son los cambios de la lengua que han resultado más polémicos? ¿Hay palabras caníbales? La lengua es el patrimonio inmaterial más grande que tienen todos los hablantes de un mismo idioma. En los 1001 asuntos que se tratan en este libro, se analizan palabras que han cruzado océanos y han atravesado continentes de punta a punta para enriquecer el español, la lengua que compartimos casi seiscientos millones de personas en el mundo, como kétchup, charol, té y otras muchas más, y voces y expresiones para nombrar nuevas realidades, como selfi, gentrificación o dietismo, que han venido para quedarse en nuestra época. Esas eternas dudas como cuándo emplear sino y cuándo si no, o si el punto va fuera o dentro de los paréntesis también tienen su hueco en esta obra. En definitiva, 1001 curiosidades, palabras y expresiones del español constituye un recorrido aleatorio, instructivo y ameno por nuestra lengua, un cofre que encierra 1001 tesoros para degustarla en pequeñas dosis: de diez en diez. Con prólogo de Mario Tascón ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Language curiosities, word tricks, false cognates, and other peculiarities to enjoy and understand the Spanish language.
What words are transforming our world? What have been the most controversial language changes? Are there cannibalizing words?
Language is the largest intangible heritage that all speakers of a same language have. The 1001 themes covered in this book analyze such things as: words that have crossed oceans and spanned continents from end to end to enrich the Spanish language, one shared by almost six hundred million people in the world, and it also analyzes expressions that have risen to give names to our new realities, such as selfie or gentrification. Such eternal doubts like if the period goes inside or outside of parentheses are also touched upon in this work. In short, 1001 Curiosities, Words, and Expressions of the Spanish Language constitutes a random, instructive, and entertaining journey through our language, a treasure chest that contains 1001 gems that can be read and enjoyed little by little in small quantities. Prologue by Mario Tascón.

The definitive reference
Format: Kindle
The definitive reference. It can be a bit hard to use if you're not up on the jargon, but it's an invaluable work if you are interested in the technical aspects of poetics.

Kindle Version is HORRIBLE
Format: Kindle
I recently bought the Kindle Version, and although I love this book as a reference guide the publisher did not include indexing which does not allow a reader to search making it almost impossible and very time consuming to hunt down a term or entry. If you are considering buying the kindle version I would highly recommend purchasing the paperback version as it will be much easier to peruse the entries.
