Publisher's Synopsis
How important is Spanish? More than 500 million people in forty-four countries worldwide speak Spanish. It is one of the official languages of the United Nations and other international organizations including the European Union and the African Union. Spanish is called el Castellano in Spain. Spanish is widely used in Latin America, the United States, and other world regions. Being bilingual makes you smarter and has obvious practical benefits in an increasingly global world.
This Spanish Grammar is for you if you are serious about learning Spanish. You will learn the basics of grammar and how to use and conjugate verbs. I recommend that you study the Mini-Dialogues, and the vocabulary before you attempt the included exercises.
The Revision chapter demonstrates, in summary form, how to conjugate verbs in each tense. The answers to all exercises are included in the last chapter. Short notes on points of interest on Spanish and Hispanic culture have also been added.
If you are reading this book as an ebook, I recommend you use a device with a large screen. If your device is connected to the Internet, active hyperlinks will allow you to access YouTube videos presented by native Spanish-speaking teachers. The YouTube videos may help clarify the grammar topics and also help your pronunciation.
