ایراداتی که می‌تونم بگیرم این‌ه که کتاب تلفظ رو نشون نمی‌داد و باید ضمن خوندن و فلش کارت درست کردن به دیکشنری‌های دیگه مراجعه می‌کردم. اشکال دیگه کم بودن مثال برای کلمات هست، یعنی یک مثال برای کلمات به نظرم کافی نیست.
سوای این دو اشکال، کتاب مناسبی برای یاد گرفتن کلمات جدید بیسیک می‌تونه باشه، اما اصلا کافی نیست.

PRO: Decent book for someone who already has a baseline understanding of the Spanish language. This book almost serves more like a dictionary for 1000+ pre-determined important Spanish words. It is very useful if you are not at a beginner level with the language.

CON: If you are a beginner please stay away from this book. There isn't enough lessons with this book to help someone new to the language learn basic grammar of the language. It also doesn't serve the purposes of someone who is looking for quick phrases for an upcoming trip to a Spanish speaking country.


This book is best used in my opinion as a reference guide or dictionary for someone with a fundamental understanding of the grammar of the Spanish language. You must be at the intermediate level of Spanish comprehension to fully enjoy the merits of this book.

I found this to be a most useful book for learning some basic vocabulary. I like the format. It has the Spanish word, and then the definition in English. It then uses the word in a sentence, and then the English translation of the sentence. So I ended up actually learning more than just vocabulary. I was able to absorb some sentence structure and grammar also. At the end of the book are lists of useful words such as numbers, days of the week, etc., etc., etc. I would recommend this book to anyone who is just beginning to learn Spanish as a very useful aide or supplement to their study.
