Good to know

Reading is how you learned most of the words you know in English. Plotlingo puts a few Spanish words into a story you want to finish and brings them back again and again. A short review then checks them just before you'd forget them. Chapter by chapter, more of the page turns Spanish: single words, then phrases, then whole sentences.

You'll finish it knowing your first Spanish words.
