As someone who's already fluent in French and currently living in Paris where I have
access to great bookstores, I'm wondering if anyone has some recommendations of good French-language resources for Spanish. The point is to find materials that take advantage of already knowing a romance language, not to mention advanced knowledge of grammar that the French tend to be taught and anglophones not (unless we study a foreign language). I already have Assimil Espagnol Sans Peine and I'm working through Madrigal's Magical Key to Spanish which shows all the "backdoor" connections between Spanish and English thanks to the French influence. I'd do a search but I haven't found a French-speaking language learning community online quite like this one and I don't just want to pick up whatever materials have the best marketing. 2 persons have voted this message useful | |

I'm currently using Espagnol Débutant : Une leçon par jour pendant 3 mois.
It's published by Livre de Poche and the list price is only 6,50 €, so pretty cheap. You can get a more expensive box set with audio, but don't bother. The book itself is pretty good. It focuses on the Iberian variety of Spanish, so you'll learn vosotros and the 'th' pronunciation of C and Z, but you can ignore them if you want. The lessons are short (I do three a day, currently), and they are written for the French learner, so you will be able to count on cognates and the like. It's the best value I was able to find. ISBN is 9782253084334 I also saw at the bookstore a pretty decent one called « 40 Leçons pour parler espagnol » and in Europe it's about the same price, but for some reason here in QC it was more expensive, so I chose the other one, but I'm sure it's pretty good. Amazon address : http://www.amazon.fr/40-Le%C3%A7ons-pour-parler- espagnol/dp/2266189158/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&qid=1339732549&sr= 8-8 Bonne chance ! 1 person has voted this message useful |
