This is a guide to Spanish usage for those who have already acquired the basics of the language and wish to extend their knowledge.

It takes full account of the differences between European and Latin American Spanish, as well as focusing on questions of style and register that are all too often ignored. Clear, readable and easy to consult, it guides the user through the richness and diversity of this increasingly important world language.
