This book won't teach you Spanish! But it will de-code the Spanish language so that you will have access to secrets which can help you learn Spanish more easily! Demystifying these secrets is the key to mastering the language, as well as giving you a quick start in any Spanish class or self-study program. This innovative "playbook" explains these concepts in plain and easy English, while encouraging you to relax and have fun at the same time!

You wouldn't try to get to know a new city without a map to guide you. The same principle applies to new languages. Whether you're brand new to Spanish or you're visiting it after many years, Quick-Start Spanish® gives you the lay of the land and helps you quickly orient yourself to the structure, sounds, and basic rules that govern the language as it is spoken and written. And that's the first big step toward feeling at home in Spanish.

A fun, user-friendly workbook or "playbook," Quick-Start Spanish® takes the mystery and confusion out of learning Spanish with dozens of illustrations, amusing anecdotes, and more than 80 games and exercises that entertain as they enlighten. A great introduction to a formal course or self-study program, it makes getting started in Spanish as easy as 1-2-3! In three parts, Quick-Start Spanish® fills you in on everything you need to know about:

1. Spanish pronunciation and how to make the correct sounds in Spanish.

2. The basics of how Spanish nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, gender, and tense work, as well as how words are arranged in Spanish sentences.

3. More advanced grammar, such as object pronouns, the past, future, and conditional tenses, compound verbs, and the subjunctive mood.

Featuring a new section of review exercises that help you gauge your progress and reinforce what you've learned, this second edition of Quick-Start Spanish® is indispensable for anyone who is about to start a Spanish course, has already begun one and is feeling lost, or has tried before and is nervous about restarting.
