What is the hardest challenge you’ve faced as a student of the Spanish language?

You can work hard on your grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation, but being able to communicate naturally isn’t easy.

In fact, the toughest part of learning Spanish is knowing how to speak like a native.

Most textbooks are made to teach you the traditional rules and structures of a language and are great for getting around the grammar and spelling questions you may have.

However, how many of them provide you the tools necessary to have a common conversation with a best friend or someone you’ve just met? Not many at all.

Language learners often complain about this - a lack of material that can help you familiarize yourself with the most common phrases used in everyday conversation and in native surroundings.

For this reason, we at Lingo Mastery have developed Easy Spanish Phrase Book: Over 1500 Common Phrases for Everyday Use and Travel for you, our favorite language-learner, so that you may find the best expressions for common usage in Spanish speaking countries and communicate with your Spanish friends, colleagues, and client without any issue!

In this book, you'll find:

• An introduction with a detailed guide on how to pronounce vowels and consonants (as well as their combinations) in the Spanish tongue.
• A list of over 1,500 common phrases in Spanish, with an accurate translation in English for your understanding.
• A phonetics pronunciation guide of each and every word in the phrases, included after every translation.
• Finally, a conclusion to make sure you’ve learned and supply you with a final list of tips.

Your days struggling with natural communication with natives is finally over. Our Easy Spanish Phrase Book is here.

It’s time for you to take your Spanish to the next level.

This dictionary is organized in sets of proverbs, where the English proverb is followed by one or more Spanish equivalent proverbs. The English proverbs are arranged according to a main word. Equivalent proverbs are those which express the same concept, be it literally or with different words.

Proverbs included in this collection come from monolingual, bilingual and multilingual collections, some as old as the 16th century, and it should be accepted that some of them are contradictory, discriminatory, blasphemous or scurrilous and as such they reflect past attitudes and express the idiosyncrasies of a people and their culture through time and history. At the same time, proverbs are based on the practical experience of humankind and show us that we can change and do better.

While proverbs are still used today in a traditional way, that is in speech, literature and teaching, they have found a new ever-expanding use in the advertising industry and in the mass media. Proverbs like "Here today, gone tomorrow" become "Hair today, gone tomorrow" in the hair-removal industry, while the mass media has a variety of paraphrases such as "Hear today, gone tomorrow," "Heir today, gone tomorrow." Before the Barcelona Olympic Games, the old proverb "All roads lead to Rome" became "All roads lead to Barcelona" in many English language newspapers and magazines. This is a phenomenon encountered in many languages today and is undoubtedly a sign of the proverb's resilience and vitality.

As travel has become more frequent than in the past, more people learn foreign languages and proverbs are borrowed from the cultures they come in contact with. It is good, therefore, to be familiar with them. Read by native speakers, the proverbs in this dictionary will allow you to practice the language you are studying, by helping you improve your pronunciation, enrich your vocabulary and become familiar with the structure of the language.

Linguistically speaking, Jamaican Creole, commonly known as Patwa is phonetically and grammatically similar to many other languages born out of the hardships of slavery. However culturally, it can be argued that there has been no other Creole with a far greater reach and impact. Jamaican Creole has reached the very depths of places like Canada, The UK, and of course the United States. And has been changing the way the inhabitants of these places communicate for decades. The purpose of this learning aid is to give you 1) A few new words and phrases to have under your belt for your own integration into your language no matter the country you are, 2) Categories under which these words and phrases are often times used. And 3) Ideas and examples of how Jamaican words and phrases can, and have made their way into the English language.. What you will hear in this short audiobook is a combination of mock conversations, phrases and their translation and much more. Like any and all languages, Creole is extremely versatile and fluid. So I encourage you to have fun with the language, and most importantly gain your own respect and appreciation for its use. Thank you, and enjoy.
