With "How to Say "Fabulous!" in 8 Different Languages", gay travelers will always know how to speak the language, regardless of where they end up. This hilarious phrasebook features hundreds of phrases, all translated into French, German, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, Russian, and Spanish. In the Dining Out section, for instance, you'll learn how to say: "nonsmoking"; "coffee"; "Can I have a menu?"; and "I am a vegetarian." But also learn how to say: "Our waiter is hot."; "You've had worse things in your mouth!" and "Hurry up, my clothes are going out of style!" There are also sections on Night Life ("Are there any gay bars around here?"), Shopping ("Those shoes! I must have those shoes!"), Making Friends ("I am a flight attendant / choreographer / actor / owner of a greeting card store/etc."), Working Out ("Do you have Nautilus equipment?"), Parting Glances ("I never meant to hurt you."), and much more.
