About the Book

SPANISH FLUENCY is a unique vocabulary companion written in a contemporary, easy-reading style with an emphasis on humor. This is not your boring grammar book... Whether beginner or advanced, this book is your shortcut to the language and will improve your Spanish by a quantum leap. The first part, Going for Fluency, provides an insight into the four modalities of language learning (reading, writing, listening and speaking) and a broad range of ideas for increasing fluency through today's technology: apps, blogs, ebooks, film, websites, music, media and more. The second part, Cognates, the Twin Words of Language, explores thousands of twin words, (such as interesante and interesting) that exist between Spanish and English. Linguistically, these words are your ultimate cheap trick to language acquisition and are your springboard to fluency. People who are "good with languages" take great advantage of the extraordinary abundance of twin words at their disposal. Twin words, by virtue of their similarity, make memorization a snap and make picking up the language exponentially easier. These twin words are presented in an engaging, readable way, first through grammar, (nouns, adjectives, verbs, etc.) and then through categories (People, Food, Travel, etc.) SPANISH FLUENCY unlocks your language skills by showing you a multitude of words, "that you knew, but didn't know you knew." The third part, Essential Vocabulary, explores the 1000 most essential Spanish vocabulary words critical for everyday, fluent speech, through a variety of inspirational quotes, pithy quips and laugh-out-loud zingers. The author has a Bachelor's degree in Spanish Literature from George Washington University and a Master's degree in Italian Literature from Catholic University in Washington, D.C. She has taught Spanish, French and Italian and has been privileged to live in various parts of Spain, Italy and Germany.
About the Author: Forced to move to Europe as a child, Susan went, kicking and screaming. Turned out she liked the place pretty well, after all, and hasn't been the same since. Fascinated with the European cultural scene and all those funny languages, she got a Bachelor's in Spanish Lit. from George Washington University and a Master's in Italian Lit. from Catholic University in Washington D.C. She has been privileged to live and work in various parts of Europe and roam throughout Europe extensively. She lives with her first husband, two offspring, three felines and a fish called Dante. She adores art, travel, books and languages and teaches Italian and fuses glass in Ft. Worth, Texas. Having taught Spanish, French and Italian, languages remain her wildest passion.
