Presentación: Este trabajo es fruto de una colaboración desde hace más de cinco a?os entre los estudiantes espa?oles interesados en el estudio de la lengua rumana y la profesora Dana Oprica, quien ha decidido agrupar en un libro todo el material presentado por nativos acerca de la lengua y cultura espa?olas. Así se presenta esta guía como un instrumento fácil, moderno y rápido de comunicación en espa?ol, con matices culturales para poner de manifiesto las costumbres espa?olas. Cada tema está precedida por datos de interés cultural, así figuran capítulos como: Organización territorial, Sistema de gobierno, Partidos políticos, Sistema judicial, La ense?anza, Menús, Fiestas, etc. Como novedad hemos introducidos glosarios de expresiones y exclamaciones, interjecciones y onomatopeyas, junto a un vocabulario tabú, que, sin sobrepasar los límites de la decencias, ayuda a realizar conversaciones informales. Recalcamos la idea que este trabajo fue inspirado de las necesidades de un hablante de lengua rumana que se encuentra en Espa?a para estancias temporales o de larga duración. El trabajo se dirige a cualquier persona interesada en lengua y cultura espa?ola. Los registros de palabras útiles, agrupadas al final de cada tema, varias expresiones usuales pueden servir tanto a los traductores de literatura como a los implicados en la comunicación oral o escrita. ?Nos encantaría poderles servir de ayuda!

A collection of the personal letters of one of history's greatest military minds to his mistress Lady Hamilton.

This book is in the form of a diary of military service kept from 3 September 1939 to release in spring 1946. It is a true and accurate account. There is not one word of fiction. Douglas Hudson wrote about how he felt at the time, and what he saw in not quite six and a half years. There are inevitable gaps when there was either nothing of importance to note or difficulty in doing so, particularly when abroad. A diary like this one was strictly against regulations, so it had to be kept secretly. Douglas Hudson was plucked out of a happy, comfortable home life for an indeterminate period in 1939 to face what seemed to him quite an uncouth army life at times. It was a massive shock in many ways, so he thought it all ought to be recorded for posterity. These diary notes would not have been classed as high-grade intelligence if they had ever fallen into the wrong hands, but in parts they could well have been of some use to the enemy. The chaps with whom the author served throughout the war were mainly from the Goole and Hull areas. They all had a bitter hatred of the enemy - many had had their homes and family life destroyed - yet discipline, morale and comradeship remained of the highest order. They were the salt of the earth without doubt.
