New Guidelines of the Spanish

The previous edition of this work dates from 1931. In these 80 years Spanish language has changed enough and the 4000 pages of the book bear this out.

This is a Spanish language map produced by the Royal Spanish Language Academy and 21 other sister organizations in Latin America, United States and other countries.

This book is a compilation of the wealth of the Spanish language. It notes, for example, different ways of saying the same word depending on context, environment or social class. This is given by the enormous expansion of the language throughout the world. That is why, in this new edition have been overturned efforts to emphasize the linguistic habits of Latin America, the region where most Spanish-speakers actually live.
