About the Publisher
how to use this book
The Easy Learning Spanish Vocabulary is designed for both young and adult learners. Whether you are starting to learn Spanish for the very first time, revising for school exams or simply want to brush up on your Spanish, the Easy Learning Spanish Vocabulary offers you the information you require in a clear and accessible format.
This book is divided into 50 topics, arranged in alphabetical order. This thematic approach enables you to learn related words and phrases together, so that you can become confident in using particular vocabulary in context.
Vocabulary within each topic is divided into nouns and useful phrases which are aimed at helping you to express yourself in idiomatic Spanish. Vocabulary within each topic is graded to help you prioritize your learning. Essential words include the basic words you will need to be able to communicate effectively, important words help expand your knowledge, and useful words provide additional vocabulary which will enable you to express yourself more fully.
Nouns are grouped by gender: masculine (“el”) nouns are given together, as are feminine (“la”) nouns, enabling you to memorize words according to their gender. In addition, all feminine forms of adjectives are shown, as are irregular plurals.
At the end of the book you will find a list of supplementary vocabulary, grouped according to part of speech – adjective, verb, noun and so on. This is vocabulary which you will come across in many everyday situations.

PLURALS AND GENDER
In Spanish, if a noun ends in a vowel it generally takes –s in the plural (casa > casas). If it ends in a consonant (including y) it generally takes –es in the plural (reloj > relojes). If it doesn’t follow these rules, then the plural will be given in the text.
Although most masculine nouns take “el” and most feminine nouns take “la”, you will find a few nouns grouped under feminine words which take “el” (el agua water; el arca chest; el aula classroom) because they are actually feminine.
