I would like to learn and teach card games to a Spanish speaker in Mexico. Does anyone know if terms like deal, deck, shuffle, discard, books, runs, or Rummy translate directly or what the terms would be in Spanish. Also, if anyone knows of a link to Rummy rules/directions using the 52 card deck in Spanish that would be terrific!

I did find this some information on suits but I am confused as to if barajas is a regular deck of cards (52) or the 40 card deck. Thanks to anyone who can provide information.

Spanish Wiki entry for Rummy which is just called Rummy. It is very short but I hope it helps.
