If you’re more interested in conversing with Spanish-speaking friends and colleagues and less interested in memorizing grammar rules, this is the guide for you!

William C. Harvey knows that not every student of the Spanish language wants to translate Don Quixote! In fact, a great many of us just want a working knowledge of it so we can to communicate with Spanish speakers at work and in social situations.

In Spanish for the Rest of Us, Harvey skips the idea of memorizing grammar rules to focus on everyday, practical Spanish. He emphasizes the most-often-used Spanish words and phrases, and includes numerous language-learning tips that provide a short-cut to effective communication.

This lively, informal program is supported by audio recordings (online and mobile), streaming through McGraw Hill’s Language Lab app—which also provides flashcards and pronunciation for all vocabulary lists.

Spanish for the Rest of Us features:

  • A super practical way to learn everyday Spanish to use with friends and co-workers—from a very experienced author and teacher
  • Less grammar, more understanding—ideal for learners who are intimidated by formal classes and programs
  • An attractive presentation and fun features, including hot tips, checklists, cultural insights, key word lists, and more
  • Extensive audio recordings that provide pronunciation models to support the program, streaming via the McGraw-Hill Language Lab app
  • Flashcards and pronunciation for all vocabulary available via the language app
