About this study guide

This self-study resource takes you from the foundations of Spanish to the language used at work. Early sections explain pronunciation, gender and articles, ser and estar, and the present, past and future tenses, with plenty of everyday vocabulary for travel, shopping, food and small talk. Later sections introduce the subjunctive, formal and informal address, and the differences between the Spanish used in Spain and in Latin America. The business content covers introductions, meetings, presentations, phone calls, emails and polite ways to agree, disagree and negotiate. Example dialogues and writing tasks help you put each topic into practice. The material has four levels, Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced and Expert, and suits travellers, professionals and anyone who wants a structured path through Spanish at their own pace.
