NAHJ's Manual de Estilo
This comprehensive first edition of the Manual de Estilo is an expert guide on grammar, the proper use of titles and other style questions, common problems with intonation and pronunciation on the air, and the tricky craft of translating stock market terms and government jargon in a predominantly English U.S. environment.
Journalists who work in the booming and challenging Spanish-language media industry will also learn how to keep Spanglish from creeping into their work and stay away from words that may take on different -- and sometimes obscene -- meanings as vocabularies from a myriad of Latin America are forced to come together in the U.S.
