Fundamentals
Let’s face it, too much grammar can kill you!. So don’t try to become an expert from day 1!! Focus on the present tense first and then, move on to the past and future simple. Keep practicing and don’t worry about the rest. When you see an ad, when you go to the supermarket, when you are out on the street, try to translate those signs, labels and conversations into
Spanish. This way your brain will slowly start to “think Spanish” and you will become more comfortable speaking. And to illustrate your conversations and located them in time, you can always include these words in your conversation:
Hoy - Today
Ahora - Now
Ayer - Yesterday
Mañana - Tomorrow
Antes - Before
Después - After
Examples:
Yo aprendo inglés hoy
I learn English today
Yo fui al teatro ayer
I went to the theater yesterday
Nosotros iremos de vacaciones mañana
We will go on vacation tomorrow
Ellas están antes que yo
They (female) are before me
Ellos tienen hambre
They (male) are hungry
Ustedes comen helado después de la cena
