Hola! We're very happy to have you here at SpanishDict.

Please read here.

Since you are beginner, I recommend you start learning the basics!

When I first started learning Spanish, I would study by taping thing around the house. When my vocabulary words were household items, I'd tape an index card with "el fregadero" to the kitchen sink, "el espejo" to the mirror, and so on. My mom didn't like it, jaja, but it helped me learn. Those were things I'd encounter everyday. When it came time to take my test, I was able to remember the words easily. Maybe you should try something like that.

I'd also look on iTunes for some podcasts. SpanishDict has some videos, but some others are pure listening! They are great for when you are a passenger in the car! Since they are listening exercises, you can replace whenever you listen to music on your iPod with listening to the exercises. Some podcasts are like a regular Spanish news channel. I don't recommmend those for beginners. I tried listening to one and felt really discouraged!! However, some are specifically for learners (especially beginners) and they do help! Instead of listening to music while you exercise, download a podcast on your iPod (if you have one) and listen! grin


Your profile says you are an intermediate level English speaker. Just so you know, we have excellent English lessons here, too!

If you have any other questions regarding how SpanishDict works, feel free to read in our Beginner's Guide.

¡Hola! I started by learning basic conversation words and greetings, which they have here at SpanishDict.com! Just start with lesson 1.1 and it will all make sense!
