Have you ever felt overwhelmed as you’ve attempted to learn a new language? All of those vocabulary words and what about those verb conjugations!?! But, learning Spanish really can be simplified.
First of all, there literally are THOUSANDS of words in Spanish and English that are cognates. Now, some of these words are exact cognates, and some look so close in writing that it’s easy to determine their meaning. OK, now let’s stop right here for a few considerations. Of course, it’s a lot easier to recognize or produce these words when they are in in written form than it is to understand them or to say them aloud.
This is the beauty of many of Spanish Steps products. By simply learning a few things about written Spanish, you can communicate volumes to Mom and Dad through your written correspondence. Going Home With Spanish and Home Again With Spanish contain hundreds of already translated comments from English to Spanish. But, an added benefit is that each workbook also TEACHES you why you’re writing what you’re writing. The goal is for you to write more and more comments on your own as you continue to learn the language.
