Simply send an email to SpanishMyWay@hotmail.com. Send me questions, comments, suggestions, or anything you wish. Maybe something you write will find its way on my blog. Above all, I am here for you to help you learn Spanish and to communicate better in Spanish. So ask away!
One question I received is from Adam who lives in Minneapolis, MN. Adam is new to Spanish and has a new Android phone. He's wondering what apps are out there which could help him with his Spanish.
There are actually quite a few out there, Adam. If you search your Android Marketplace using the word "Spanish," you will come across hundreds. You can also search the marketplace for specific types of Spanish learning tools and activities and games. I always flock to the free apps which I have some suggested ones to check out. As I go through them, I will link to where you can download them through the Android Marketplace.
Flashcards - Spanish by GreenLife Apps is a great flashcard system. It's easy to start using and does a wonderful job in testing your knowledge of vocabulary and phrases. This app is free! There may be a "Pro" version that charges money.
1001 Spanish Verbs by Andrew Lyczak has over a thousand verbs in Spanish with all of their conjugations. Never have a lapse of memory on how to conjugate a verb in Spanish again. It has many of the common every day verbs listed in alphabetical order. This app is free! There may be a "Pro" version that charges money.
Titulares by digital NOMAD is a collection of newspapers and magazines from across the Latino and Spanish regions of the world. Get wonderful practice reading and understanding Spanish from original Spanish-language resources. This app is free! There may be a "Pro" version that charges money.
I have not tried all of the various apps for Android phones nor do I know if these apps are available for iPhone users. I have used the ones mentioned above and definitely approve them for your use. Thank you Adam for such a great question.
If you have a suggestion for Adam or would like to comment on my selection above, please post your comments directly to this blog below. If you have a question for me, send your question to SpanishMyWay@hotmail.com. ¡Hasta luego!
