  • Since you have prior experience, I'd recommend "Gramática básica del estudiante de español" (2005) published by difusion. Its entirely in spanish but it has the best visual and textual explanations of introductory spanish grammar (though it is the spanish spoken in spain dialect called castellano) in my opinion.

    I'll check this out when I'm a bit more fluent. I can string together some really basic sentences at the moment, and that's about it.


  • Weirdly enough, I've been wanting Telesur to put out a podcast for awhile, and I'm just finding out about it now. Thanks for that, I suppose. I'll definitely check that book out as well.

    Part of my end goal is to take up freelance translation as an side-income source, which is why I'm stressing written works as well as audio.




  • I've noticed that too. They used to have little message boards after every question for discussion, but they took that away at some point. It was one of the best features that Duolingo had, and it feels kind of aimless without it. I might see about signing up for a local class, since those seem to be available where I live.
