Download or read book Breaking Out of Beginner s Spanish written by Joseph J. Keenan and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many language books are boring—this one is not. Written by a native English speaker who learned Spanish the hard way—by trying to talk to Spanish-speaking people—it offers English speakers with a basic knowledge of Spanish hundreds of tips for using the language more fluently and colloquially, with fewer obvious "gringo" errors. Writing with humor, common sense, and a minimum of jargon, Joseph Keenan covers everything from pronunciation, verb usage, and common grammatical mistakes to the subtleties of addressing other people, "trickster" words that look alike in both languages, inadvertent obscenities, and intentional swearing. He guides readers through the set phrases and idiomatic expressions that pepper the native speaker's conversation and provides a valuable introduction to the most widely used Spanish slang. With this book, both students in school and adult learners who never want to see another classroom can rapidly improve their speaking ability. Breaking Out of Beginner's Spanish will be an essential aid in passing the supreme language test-communicating fluently with native speakers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spanish Reader for Beginners II, the second book of the series Spanish Reader for Beginners, Intermediate, and Advanced Students, intended for Spanish language learners who desire to review Spanish Grammar structures that often require extensive work, such as regular and irregular verbs in The Past and Past Imperfect Tenses. CostaRica SpanishOnline provides Spanish language learning materials. In this occassion, we offer you a collection of short stories created by Iris Acevedo A., written in Spanish from Latin America, mainly Central America, with the purpose of providing Spanish Language learners a source of Spanish vocabulary and Spanish grammar included in short stories. Each story, written in the format of short paragraphs, translated from Spanish to English, allows for instant vocabulary translation, thus presenting the reader a vast range of new vocabulary that is easy to learn. One thing to keep in mind, though, as you begin to read is that Spanish is "wordy". What in English can be said in two words, we may end up saying in a whole sentence. For the purpose of teaching you the way we speak, I have used a very literal form of translation to provide you with the exact meaning of each thought, although perhaps it won't make sense to you to say it in such a way. Each volume, from Beginner I to Advanced III, provides short stories that keep you guessing until you reach the end: an unusual twist. We guarantee that you will find a unique blend of culture in Latin America, modern and traditional lifestyles, transitional phrases, grammar structures adequate for each particular level as well as entertainment and increasing practice of grammatical structures required in order to achieve full understanding and fluency in Spanish. In addition to our Spanish Readers, you may find a collection of Spanish dialogues in our series: Spanish Conversation Book for Beginners, Intermediate, and Advanced Students, available in two formats: e.book and paperback. For students who are just beginning to encounter the Spanish language, we offer an elementary Spanish book: Spanish Reader for Beginners-Elementary. Iris Acevedo A. Founder CostaRicaSpanishOnline
