This little book was a great reference for my introduction to Spanish class.
It presents 100 of the most common Spanish verbs in an alphabetical
format. Each verb has a comic strip/cartoon which will help you remember
the meaning of the verb by using the methods of mnemonics and
association with the equivalent word in English.
For example, the Spanish word mirar means to look at, so the cartoon
shows a person looking in a mirror with the caption: Roger looks at the
MIRROR. Another example is the word cantar which means to sing. The
cartoon shows a boy singing on a stage with those in the audience
covering their ears. The caption is: Bing CANT sing. Also gastar means to
spend. The comic shows a lady purchasing gas and the caption says:
Mama Cass spends too much on GAS, and so on and so forth for the other
97 verbs. While this method may seem silly to some people, it is also
unforgettable and therefore an effective way to remember.
Another plus is that the verb conjugations in the present and preterite
tenses are listed below the comic strips and a small exercise with it usage
on the next page. Going by my nieces enthusiasm about this book,
teenagers taking highschool Spanish will love it too.
If you enjoy this method, youll probaby like Spanish by Association by
Michael Gruneberg too. However, it doesnt have the cartoons like Comic
Mnemonics but it includes nouns as well as verbs.
