The STREET SPEAK 2 Textbook continues where the STREET SPEAK 1 Textbook leaves off by presenting dialogues in context using more slang words and idioms spoken by virtually everyone!

The STREET SPEAK 2 Textbook is the next book in the series which not only offers dialogues using slang and idioms, but it also presents the new “SLANGMAN FILES.” In this section, you’ll find lists of slang and idioms by category such as “Fruits and Vegetables,” “Car and On-the-Road,” “Body Parts,” “Colors,” and so much more!
