Will I really learn 3 x faster?

Welcome to the 3 x Faster Spanish 1 with LinkWord ebook. This ebook will give you a working vocabulary and basic grammar faster than you ever imagined possible. To see just how much LinkWord is appreciated by users, just read some of our many positive customer reviews who find LinkWord courses not only highly effective but highly enjoyable.

“Having tried a number of language learning courses I always found it almost impossible to retain the information. Then I stumbled upon LinkWord Languages and found its word association methods an absolute deal breaker for my limited retention abilities.”
Dave Linly, uk.trustpilot.com/review/linkwordcourses.video

“It took 12 hours to teach a regime that normally takes 40 hours.“
Financial Times interview with of training manager of Thomson holidays

“I’m astonished at the amount of new words I am learning so easily and absolutely love the fact that within a week I was already constructing sentences.”
Willow May, uk.trustpilot.com/review/linkwordcourses.video

“With LinkWord you can learn 200-300 words a day without too much.”
Tim Ferriss, Author of the New York Times No 1 best seller ‘The 4-Hour Workweek’

“I have mild dyslexia and learning a language in class was difficult. The LinkWord method as an alternative works very well for me.”
Dreeko Dreeks, uk.trustpilot.com/review/linkwordcourses.video

“Learners find the keyword technique (LinkWord) an enjoyable activity and can achieve large amounts of learning with it, with some learners learning 400 words in 12 contact hours and 600 in four days.”

“The overwhelming evidence is strongly in favour of the keyword technique for both immediate recall and for use with a variety of languages.”

Professor Paul Nation, 2022, Learning Vocabulary in Another Language, Cambridge University Press

“In the end of term result, the average mark with a conventional approach was 23.75%. This rose to 69% using the Linkword course.”
Vernon Thomas, Head of Languages, Bishop Vaughan School Swansea, Western Mail, Wales

Who is the ebook for?

LinkWord will work for almost anyone. This course is ideal as a supplement to school work, for anyone who needs to gain a working knowledge of a language for business or travel, no matter how good or bad you were at languages at school. Unlike other language courses, LinkWord has also been shown to greatly help learners who are dyslexic.

In 10-12 hours you will be able to communicate in sentences with a vocabulary of hundreds of useful words. This is up to 3x normal learning speed!

A large number of scientific studies have shown how effective the LinkWord method is, and over 750,000  people worldwide have used LinkWord courses.

How does the ebook work?

This is how the course works.

1.  You will be presented with words like this:

The Spanish for rice is arroz [arros]:
imagine arrows landing in your plate of rice.

What you do is to imagine every picture below in your mind's eye as vividly as you can for about ten seconds before moving on to the next word.

If you do not spend enough time picturing the image in your mind's eye, it will not stick in your memory as well as it should.

2.  When you are given a new word to learn, it will be spelt correctly in Spanish. However, to help you with pronunciation the approximate way to pronounce the word will be given next to the word in brackets. The approximate pronunciation will help you to be understood.

3. At the end of every section, you will be able to listen to a native speaker pronounce the Spanish words you have just learned. You will have a chance to listen and repeat the words you have learnt.

4. Sometimes, the words in English and Spanish are the same or very similar. In such cases, you will be asked to associate the word in some way with bullfighters.

For example, The Spanish for taxi is taxi. Try to imagine a taxi filled with bullfighters. Whenever bullfighters come to mind, therefore, you will know the word is the same in both languages.

5.  There is a list of words learned in each section at the end of every section and at the end of the course. You will see that you have learned a large number of useful words and enough grammar to communicate effectively in many situations.

Useful hints

When using the LinkWord system, it is useful to bear in mind the following tips:

Firstly, it is usually best to go through the course as quickly as possible. Many people can get through most of the course in a weekend, especially if they start on Friday evening. If you are learning in a school setting, it is best to spend at least two sessions a week on the course.

Take a break of about ten minutes between each section, and always stop if you are tired.

Do not worry about forgetting a few words, and do not go back to relearn words you think you have forgotten. Just think of how much you are learning,  and you will pick up the forgotten words when it comes to revising.

Again you should not worry about spelling to begin with. Count yourself correct if you have remembered the sound of the word. Once you have completed the course then you should pay more attention to spelling.

The course should be revised after Sections 1, 6 and 10. Then revise the whole course one week later, then one month after that.

Do not worry about losing a few words or bits of grammar after a time. Relearning is extremely fast, all it normally takes is just a few hours to be back to where you were. The course will not give you conversational fluency. You can't expect this until you start using the language actively by reading, listening or speaking or better still, going to Spain to talk to native speakers.

What this course will give you is a very rapid ability to survive in a large number of situations you meet abroad or online as well as help you greatly with school work. Once you have this framework you will find it much easier to pick up more words and grammar. The course is, therefore, the ideal complement to school work and travel.

Some important notes

The first section of this course can be regarded as a training section designed to get you into the LinkWord method quickly and easily.

This section will take about 30-45 minutes, after which you will have the confidence to translate sentences and have a thirty-word vocabulary.

Animal words are used in this section as they are a large group of "easy to imagine" words. Many animal words are also useful as they are often met abroad, dog and cat, for example.

Above all, relax and have fun.

Elementary grammar

The first bit of grammar to learn is that all nouns, or things, whether living or non-living, are either masculine or feminine.

If they end in “o”, they are masculine.

For example, bull is toro, cat is gato and dog is perro.

All these words end in “o”and are therefore masculine words.

Words which end in “a” are feminine words.

Cabra for goat and vaca for cow end in “a” and are therefore feminine words.

Are the following words feminine or masculine?

cabra

pato

burro

rana

ganso

Answers:

cabra is feminine

pato is masculine

burro is masculine

rana is feminine

ganso is masculine

A few words do not end in “o” or “a”. Do not worry about these. We will deal with them later.

2. More animals 1

Imagine every picture below in your mind's eye as vividly as you can for about ten seconds before moving on to the next word.

The Spanish for monkey is mono [mono]:

imagine a monkey wearing a monocle.

The Spanish for rat is rata [rata]:

imagine a rat fighting a bullfighter.

The Spanish for mouse is ratón [raton]:

imagine a rat on a mouse, squashing it flat.

The Spanish for animal is animal [aneemal]:

imagine a bullfighter surrounded by a whole lot of different animals.

The Spanish for salmon is salmón [salmon]:

imagine a salmon leaping over a bullfighter.

The Spanish for wasp is avispa [aveespa]:

imagine a whisper in your ear as a wasp buzzes near you.

The Spanish for bear is oso [oso]:

imagine a big grizzly bear oh! so near you.

The Spanish for a (live) fish is pez [pes]:

imagine a fish in an aquarium eating the pith of an orange.

The Spanish for elephant is elefante [elefanteh]:

imagine a bullfighter fighting an elephant.

The Spanish for bee is abeja [abeha]:

imagine a baker being chased by a bee.

Translate the words into English:

abeja – _______________________

elefante – _____________________

pez – _____________________

oso – _____________________

avispa – _____________________

salmón – _____________________

animal – _____________________

ratón – _____________________

rata – _____________________

mono – _____________________

Check your answers on the previous page.

Translate the words into Spanish:

bee – _____________________

elephant – _____________________

a (live) fish – _____________________

bear – _____________________

wasp – _____________________

salmon – _____________________

animal – _____________________

mouse – _____________________

rat – _____________________

monkey – _____________________

Check your answers on the previous page.

Elementary grammar

You learned that all nouns are either masculine or feminine. If they end in “o” they are masculine, like gato for cat. If they end in “a” they are feminine like cabra for goat.

If they do not end in either “o” or “a”, you can assume they are masculine, although you will make the occasional mistake.

If the word is masculine, then the word for the is el.

So,

el toro        is the bull

el gato is the cat

el mono is the monkey

Try to remember that men are hell to live with.

If the word is feminine, however, then the word for the is la.

So,

la vaca is the cow

la rata is the rat

la cabra is the goat

As we saw just now, where the word does not end in “a” or “o”, such as animal, ratón, pez, etc., it is almost always masculine.

So,

el animal is the animal

el pez is the fish

el elefante is the elephant

Translate the words into Spanish:

the dog

the salmon

the goat

the cow

the bee

the wasp

the mouse

the animal

the donkey

the duck

the frog

the bear

Answers:

the dog – el perro

the salmon – el salmón

the goat – la cabra

the cow – la vaca

the bee – la abeja

the wasp – la avispa

the mouse – el ratón

the animal – el animal

the donkey – el burro

the duck – el pato

the frog – la rana

the bear – el oso

3. Some adjectives (or descriptive words)

Imagine every picture below in your mind's eye as vividly as you can for about ten seconds before moving on to the next word.

The Spanish for hard is duro [dooro]:

imagine touching something hard and durable.

The Spanish for quick is rápido [rapeedo]:

imagine something rapid and quick.

The Spanish for fresh is fresco [fresko]:

imagine seeing a fresco freshly painted on a wall.

The Spanish for good is bueno [boo eno]:

imagine there must be something good in Buenos Aires!

rápido – _____________________

duro – _____________________

Check your answers on the previous page.

Translate the words into Spanish:

quiet – _____________________

bad – _____________________

good – _____________________

fresh – _____________________

quick – _____________________

hard – _____________________

Check your answers on the previous page.

Elementary grammar

The Spanish for is is está.

Imagine a star is born.

For example,

The pig is is El cerdo está

The dog is is El perro está

To say
The pig is quiet

You simply say

El cerdo está tranquilo

To say

The dog is quiet

You say

El perro está tranquilo

If the noun is feminine, such as la vaca, la cabra, and so on, then the ending of the adjective changes to “a” from “o” to agree with the noun. So,

The cow is quiet is La vaca está tranquila.

(N.B. not tranquilo)

Similarly,

The goat is quiet is La cabra está tranquila.

The other adjectives you have learned can be used in the same way, but exactly how they should be used will be explained in the next section.

El oso está tranquilo.

El ganso está tranquilo.

El mono está tranquilo.

Important note:

Some of the sentences in this course might strike you as being a bit odd!

However, they have been carefully constructed to make you think much more about what you are translating. This helps the memory process and gets away from the idea of learning useful phrases "parrot fashion.”

But of course, having learned with the help of these seemingly odd sentences you can easily construct your own sentences to suit your particular needs.

Listen to how the words are pronounced by a native speaker. Go to www.audio.goodmemory.pl and click on Spanish 1, Section 1.

This is the end of 3 x Faster Spanish 1 with LinkWord (EU)

We hope you enjoyed the course and that you will use it when you visit Spain or a Spanish-speaking country. Of course, you will not remember everything you have learned forever, but if you go through the course again a day or two before you need to use it, you will find that you get back to where you were very quickly indeed.

When you go abroad, do make the effort to speak. Your host will appreciate the effort even if you do make mistakes, and the more you make the effort, the more you will learn.

Go back to Section 1 and revise the whole course as soon as you can. Then revise again after a month, and after a year. Also, revise again a few days before you are going to use it e.g. on holiday.

If you enjoyed level 1, 3 x Faster Spanish 2 with LinkWord (EU) is the ideal follow-up course for you.
