Abstract:
Just Enough to Speak Spanish I concentrates on pronunciation with the belief that the ability to remember the meaning of a Spanish word or phrase requires the ability to say it. For that reason CDs have been included with this workbook. Jetss drills pronunciation by presenting 9 subject pronouns and 46 verbs. The student will be able to say 828 subject/verb combinations covering the present tense and present progressive tense.
It is a common thought that children learn foreign languages faster than adults. If this is true it is because a child has to learn a lot less than an adult. Children can communicate, speaking at a child’s fluently, with a 200 word vocabulary. Just Enough to Speak Spanish presents 300 vocabulary words. Just Enough to Speak Spanish II adds 46 more verbs providing the student with a total of 1,648 subject/verb combinations. Jetss II also adds 300 vocabulary words providing the learner with over 600 words that can be used in conversation.
