Book Reviews of 1001 Most Useful Spanish Words (Beginners' Guides)
Book Review: I would say its worth the three dollars.
Summary: 2 Stars
I need to learn spanish but do not have the time for school...this book will give you spanish word with the english word next to it, its basically a english/ spanish dictionary,but does not show you haw to pronounce them. The biggest PROBLEM with this book is it has the spanish words first and in alphebitical order not the english words! So unless you know spanish you have to skim the entire book to find the word you need!Book Review: Practically useless
Summary: 1 Stars
This book is practically useless for someone traveling in a Spanish speaking country. It is just a short list of Spanish words in alphabetical order accompanied by the English equivalent and a Spanish sentence containing the word. There is no conjugation of verbs or declension of other words. There is no pronunciation guide. If you are an English speaker hunting for the right word you cannot find it unless you know it and then there is little additional information about the word when you do finally happen upon it. Get a good Spanish-English dictionary instead. Book Review: Not useful
Summary: 1 Stars
This book is not good for beginners in spanish as it is intented to be, and is not, as well, suitable for intermediate or advanced. Now i understood why it sold for 0.01$.Book Review: Very useful
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a very useful book for review or for a quick check to see if you remember a word correctly. Having done several audio courses (Pimsleur I and most of "Learn Spanish in Your Car"), I was amazed at how many of the words I already knew. I keep it next to the TV to scan during commercials.Book Review: Essential Beginning Spanish Vocabulary Lesson
Summary: 5 Stars
These 1001 words are truly an essential vocabulary lesson for a beginning Spanish speaker. Each common word is defined and exemplified in a sentence of everyday conversational Spanish, illustrating proper grammar as well. A mastery of this book (assuming one knows how to pronounce the Spanish alphabet), along with a basic understanding of Spanish grammar (and a well-tuned ear), enables a student to converse readily in Spanish.
