This paper presents the results obtained from optical spectroscopy of nova LMC 1988 No. 2 made at the SAAO. It was a very fast nova (t2 = 5 d) of large amplitude (greater than 11.2 mag), and the visual maximum reached m(v) = 10.3 on October 13.75, 1988 (UT). A spectrogram taken 1.34 d after the maximum showed strong Balmer, He I, and Fe II lines with P Cyg profiles.
