2,001 Most Useful Spanish Words

very useful and easy to use.

Great book to take along with you to doctors appointments. A nice alternative to a phone. Does not require electricity to be useful. Simple sentences, some grammar, and all the vocabulary you will need to be confident on the southern border. Especially Los Angeles, most of Texas, and Florida. And, knowing some Spanish will come in very handy when the migrant workers show up at your house to install the new congelador, o cama. You won't be relegaded to standing there with a smile, looking like a moron. Just saying. I've been there done that, it's not nice. If nothing else, you will know if they are talking about you. This book will be your best friend. It's only a few bucks, just get it.

I just started taking a practical Spanish class and I was looking for a good basic book on learning Spanish. When I saw this 214 page soft cover book (2,001 most useful Spanish Words: by Pablo Garcia Loaeza, Ph.D. Dover language guide) on Amazon for a bargain price I purchased it. I just started reading this book and found it to be easy to understand and a very practical guide to learning Spanish. I am using this book along with the handouts the teacher gives us in Spanish class. One of the things I really like about this book is the way it is organized. The introduction provides basic information on Spanish dialects and a pronunciation guide. The alphabetical section begins from A to Z combining how to use the word in a sentence and what it means in English. The next section is the category section and covers specific Spanish words for animals, the body, clothes, colors, the family, food, numbers and other words. The final section explains Spanish grammar rules. The combination of learning from a Spanish teacher and reading this book I am making good progress in mastering Spanish. Rating: 4 Stars. Joseph J.

Perfect for what I needed.

This book is easy to read and understand. Easy to carry around and read when you are sitting somewhere to practice your Spanish

Hope it helps appears to be quite simple.
