As one of the official languages of Paraguay and with roughly six
million total speakers, Guarani is one of the only indigenous
American languages to flourish alongside Spanish. Although Guarani
is spoken primarily in Paraguay's more rural areas, visitors will
find some knowledge of the language to be useful in urban centers
like Asuncion, as well as some of the coastal communities of
neighboring Brazil. With over 7,000 entries, this is the most
comprehensive bilingual Guarani/English dictionary available today.
An exhaustive pronunciation and orthography section is supplied to
ensure that users are understood when traveling. In addition, this
volume provides parts of speech, illustrative examples, and
etymological notes for words derived from Spanish. The book is
primarily designed for travelers, but will also be a useful tool
for linguists and South American scholars.
