Description:

The World’s Best Selling Verb Book— and with good reason!


Fluency in Spanish starts with knowledge of verbs—and Barron’s 501 Spanish Verbs shows students and travelers exactly how to use the 501 most common and useful Spanish verbs in all 16 tenses and moods. Each verb is alphabetically listed in easy-to-follow chart form, one verb per page with its English translation.

Important added features include—
  • Formation and usage of Spanish verb tenses and moods summarized as they relate to their English equivalents
  • The 55 most essential Spanish verbs specially highlighted and supplemented with sample sentences and related words and expressions
  • Progressive forms of Spanish verbs
  • Formation of present and past participles
  • Passive and active voice formations
  • Principal parts of important Spanish verbs
  • Sentences demonstrating Spanish verb usage in all tenses with English translations
  • 26 sets of exercises in Spanish verb usage with answers explained
  • Two-color type for ease of reference
  • A-to-Z page edges marked in second color for quick reference to verbs

    Plus enlightening appendixes that cover—
  • Defective and impersonal verbs
  • A guide to Spanish pronunciation
  • Verbs used in weather expressions
  • Verbs with prepositions
  • An index of common irregular Spanish verb forms
  • English-Spanish verb index
  • List of more than 2,100 Spanish verbs! Every verb on the list is related to a model verb that’s conjugated in the same way.

    Enclosed with each book is a brand-new CD-ROM filled with—
  • Sentence completion exercises
  • Dialogue exercises
  • Word Completion exercises
  • Word Puzzles
  • Matching Spanish and English phrases

    Unlike software enclosed with verb books from other publishers, Barron’s CD-ROM concentrates exclusively on teaching verb usage that applies to reading, writing, and speaking in Spanish. The instructive and fun-to-do exercises and puzzles come with an audio option that demonstrates correct Spanish pronunciation. Barron’s CD-ROM is also more adaptable than the others because you can download it on any PC® or Mac®.

    501 Spanish Verbs plus CD-ROM—a great language learning program!

    It’s an invaluable classroom supplement for students and teachers, a self-teaching guide for international travelers, and a handy reference volume for translators. Students quickly discover that learning Spanish becomes easier with this book/CD-ROM combination because it teaches verbs and verb usage systematically. In addition to the 501 verb tables, the authors have provided a wealth of additional features that will help students develop a truly comprehensive command of Spanish for speaking, reading, writing, and listening comprehension.

    There’s a reason other publishers imitate 501 Spanish Verbs. After almost 50 years on the market, Barron’s verb books are still the best!

    5Most recommended for learners of Spanish  Jul 01, 2009
    Apart from the conjugated 501 verbs, there are additional 2100 verbs which are not conjucated but for which the 501 are used as a model.

    5this book is amazing  Jun 27, 2009
    I picked this book up for the first time in 1988 just before I moved to Guatemala for 2 years. Before moving I spoke only the smallest amount of Spanish. That is to say I knew general greetings and how to ask where the bathroom was. I studied this book every day for 3 months and tried to use each new verb in as many conjugated forms as possible as I learned them. At the end of 3 months, not only did I have a nice vocabulary, I could conjugate perfectly. While I never fully lost my American accent, I was told by many native speakers that my Spanish was "perfect". If you study this book, not only will you learn 501 verbs, but you will develop a genuine feel for the language. You will naturally begin to conjugate virtually every verb you come across. Irregular verbs will flow naturally and you will be a great Spanish speaker.

    5For Spanish learners of any level  Jun 12, 2009
    Definitely one of the most worthwhile book purchases I have ever made. 501 Spanish Verbs has been immensely helpful! Both my brother and I have used it to study for tests and finals and the way it is organized, it is so simple to use. Plus, the additional tidbits like "50 Most Essential Verbs" is useful. I bought it after my teacher recommended it to our class and have had no regrets about buying it, it was definitely worth it. The book even does a pretty good job of explaining conjugations in the beginning. All my friends thought I was crazy when I went out and bought it the day after my teacher told us, but now they ask to borrow it regularly. I would recommend to anyone and everyone who is learning Spanish.

    5501 Spanish verbs fully conjugated  Apr 26, 2009
    Once you get the hang of using it, this book is very helpful to have when you are trying to conjugate and make sentences in different tenses in Spanish. We can't always use the present tense, after all!
