Just Enough Spanish

by D.L. Ellis

The perfect Spanish phrase book for when you want to know just enough to enjoy yourself abroad Your ideal companion while traveling in Spanish-speaking countries--especially if you are a first-timer with little or no foreign language experience--this handy, pocket-size guide packs all the punch of bigger references in a much more concise, user-friendly format. While Just Enough Spanish covers all the standard phrase book topics--including everything from days, months, currencies, and clothing sizes to food, shelter, and medical assistance--its quick-reference format and at-a-glance Q&A examples make it easier than ever to find just the right word or phrase for just about every occasion. This second edition is thoroughly revised and now includes currency updates and coverage of the latest changes in travel--such as using ATMs for currency exchanges.

Perfect for prononciation but not for learning the actual language.

I marked it as read, but the truth is I’m always reading it to get a sense of the language. It’s actually from high school, and I don’t interact enough in Spanish to really retain the language naturally.

And so while I’ve “read” it, it’s also being currently read or never fully understood or whatever.

Great book very informative but could use some more details on how to put a sentence together properly instead of just saying a word to get by :)
