Publisher's summary

This audiobook will teach you more than 1,000 of the most common and useful Spanish words and phrases you will need to know in order to communicate with Spanish speakers throughout the entire Spanish-speaking world, including Spanish-speakers in the US.

This audiobook is not intended to be a grammar guide. Unlike many Spanish vocabulary audiobooks that were developed in the past, this audiobook is not limited to the needs of a typical traveler.

With this in mind, vocabulary is included that the typical traveler may not use but a person communicating with Spanish-speakers on a daily basis will find very helpful.

listening to Spanish and reading along is a lot of fun. I will listen to this book again!

Paced perfectly, great to fall asleep with

The examples are good and concise, the speaker has a perfectly neutral accent (Claudia Barrett makes me want to scratchy my eyes out), the pacing is not too slow, not too fast. Also the choice of words is great. I bought a similar one and they had throwaway words like numbers, or pronouns. These are really useful words, even better than the first 700 those fluent in 30 days type websites use. I think it's also something I'm likely tho listen to with headphones while sleeping. It's straightforward enough that just listening without thinking would work, and not too most our busy to disrupt sleep. I was a little skeptical after some poor Spanish audible books I'd bought, but I'm glad I took a chance I this one!

Love it!

Finally an excellent book in very useful phrases. There is no English translation of the phrases in the audio except for the keyword in the phrase. I’m learning a lot. I’d say this is perfect for intermediate speakers.

Fast

Too fast. The narrator goes too fast the first time he runs through the 1000 words/sentences, and MUCH too fast the 2nd time (in part two).
The length is also inflated. The 1000 words are just repeated, like I said, one time through and then another, a-z back to back in part time one and then part two of the book.

Single words in Spanish translated to English

After the Spanish word translated to English, there is a Spanish phrases, / sentence & is not translated to English, and hard to understand. No  translation from Spanish to English during the phrases, structure.
