Color-coded topics include:

Making travel arrangements in Spanish

Words and phrases for telling time, days of the week, seasons, and colors

A substantial red-coded section in this book is devoted to vocabulary. It gives travelers a bilingual dictionary in two sections--from Spanish to English and from English to Spanish. Small enough for easy packing with travel luggage, and featuring a clear, vinyl jacket that will stand up to the wear and tear of many journeys, this book is both practical and good-looking. Titles in Barron's "Traveler's Language Guides" series are available for seven different languages and countries.
