Title: a good book- but confirm with native speakers before use
Product review: The books in this series are all very good, and amusing- however, slang changes. I remember hearing a Russian say something was "the cat's pajamas". He learned that slang in school. It was slang- of the 1940's. Be aware of such changes in any book on slang. Words have seriation- that is, they rise and fall in usage, but seriation with slang words is much shorter. Having said that, this is at least fun. For some reason, words like these are much easier to remember. I wouldn't recommend using them around Germans you don't know very well, however.
