This page is intended to be an eclectic collection of information of interest to students and teachers of Spanish. It contains vocabulary lists, an English-Spanish baseball dictionary, an English-Spanish dictionary of American football, and information on the cultures of the Spanish-speaking world. It will also be a work in progress, undergoing continuous up-dates in the hope of keeping the information current.

After years of reading the sports pages of newspapers from eight countries in North, South and Central America while researching the vocabulary of baseball, I became aware of the large number of phrases, sayings and idiomatic expressions which make reference to foods, articles of clothing, body parts, numbers, colors and religion (including God, gods, the devil, the bible, saints, sinners, mythology and death).

The vocabulary lists found on this site include many such expressions, all of which have appealed to me and which, I hope, will appeal to the readers. Any and all requests, suggestions and submissions made to the site are welcome. I can be reached at jeoyo@stcloudstate.edu .
