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.

It’s time for you to take your Spanish to the next level.
Targeted towards English-speaking students of Spanish, this survival phrase book depends on the reader already having some basic knowledge. Still, it includes pronunciation guides based on comparisons with English words, which is fine, as long as it's clear what sounds are represented by “eh”, “ah” etc. – as said, here’s where the basic knowledge has to come in. Explanations of the different versions of G are a bit confusing, whereas the tricky ones - B and J - are totally missing. The phrases section is well-categorized, giving the English phrase in bold followed by the Spanish in regular letters (which I’d have preferred the other way round) together with the English phonetic transcription. The examples are well selected and helpful in a variety of situations. I’d have wished to see the feminine and plural forms along with the male singular ones, which are exclusively represented, here’s where the basic knowledge applies.
All in all, a useful complementary phrase book to be used along with your existing textbook and grammar primer.
This is a great way to learn and develop your Spanish skills. Many common phrases to learn and the correct way to pronounce the words and letter sounds correctly. Would recommend.
