The book is addressed to tourists, delegates and specialists sent to Spanish-speaking countries who do not speak Spanish, or speak to some extent, but need to expand their vocabulary and develop speech skills. The principle of building a phrasebook is thematic, most topics are accompanied by dictionaries, and there is also a Spanish-Russian dictionary at the end of the book. The content of the dictionary is determined by the principle of the frequency of word use - the most common and necessary words.
