“ Not knowing is an excuse that has a very
simple it is to LEARN and the more you learn the more

BY FRANCISCO GUILLERMO HERNÁNDEZ MÉNDEZ


INTRODUCTION
With the method that we present to you in this book, you will learn to
speak the English language with only 15 basic or everyday verbs,
and with very few basic words, you will realize how easy and fast it
is to learn the English language and be able to understand and
converse with others. This method will save you time and effort.

You will be amazed how the 15 basic verbs will help you learn to
communicate correctly and start conversations with English
speakers. We have selected the words and verbs most used during
the day and most used in everyday conversations; That is, the book
contains the vocabulary that you really need to learn and that you will
use in every conversation you want to have. In every language there
are necessary words and unnecessary words. Someone may
wonder, how is it possible to speak English with only 15 verbs?
These 15 verbs were chosen and studied scientifically, they will be
the fundamental basis of your learning for this language. Now you
will learn more verbs so that you continue studying and according to
your daily needs.

Many people try to learn the English language and despite so much
effort and time, they end up disappointed at not being able to make
a small conversation. This happens because many courses or books
focus on teaching English as a first language and also in small
portions. of very specific knowledge, to having to learn vocabulary or
phrases without association and not knowing how to create more
phrases or sentences. In order to obtain different results, we have to
change the strategy of learning the English language.

The secret of this book is that English is taught from the point of view
of someone who has learned English, from their own experience, as
a second language, not as someone who only has the idea that you
will learn English as you imagine. . You will learn to speak this
language through the cumulative knowledge method, as a second
language, in which you will learn a list of everyday or the most basic
words, verbs and grammar and you will increase your vocabulary so
that you advance in each lesson of the book, You will also learn how
to create questions and answer them.

This book is aimed at children, young people and the most adult
person who knows how to read. If you know how to read in Spanish,
this book is for you, because you can learn the English language. It
is highly recommended for use as a teaching instrument in schools
and for private instructors.

When you finish studying this book as we recommend, you will be


able to talk to anyone whose first language is English. And if you
want to use it at work, you will also be able to start conversations and
understand and speak good English with your clients or bosses.

I leave my testimony and that of other people who have learned to


speak English in a short period of time, hoping that you yourself will
recommend this book to your loved ones, friends and coworkers,
which I am also sure can benefit them in their studies. , work or in
everyday life in which the English language is highly required to
excel. Always remember this phrase: “What you put in, is what you
get out”, do not expect to speak 100% English when you have only
obtained or studied 50% or 70%. “What you put in, it is what you get
out.”
LEARNING METHOD

The book is divided into two parts:


Part I : Here you will learn basic words that are in daily use, you will
learn to use the 15 everyday or basic verbs in the present, future,
past and participle tenses. You will also learn grammar rules.

Part II : In this part you will learn to use other fundamental verbs in
everyday conversations, to use prepositions, personal, possessive
and reflexive pronouns well. You will learn numbers, telling time,
contractions, and comparatives in English.

Content of each lesson. In order to learn to speak a language you


need:
Everyday or basic words: Words are essential and basic to
increase your knowledge of English and in each lesson there will be
new words that you will have to memorize.
Grammar or rules: In each lesson you will learn some grammar
rules. Try to understand these rules or grammar so that you save
time in the learning process.
Verbs: Verbs are the heart of every language, since without them,
even if you know a thousand words, you cannot express or speak a
language well. In each lesson the conjugation of verbs will be
presented, whether in the present, future or past tense.
Questions and answers: Questions are essential to start a
conversation and it is also essential to know how to answer them.
Words and verbs are of no use or you can create grammatical
phrases or sentences if you do not know how to use them in a
conversation. That is why the question and answer section is
extremely important, because in it you will learn to speak, use or
practice what you have learned in that lesson.
Notes: Always take some time to read the notes, as they contain very
valuable information that will help you learn faster.
INDICATIONS AND FIGURATED PRONUNCIATIONS
This book will teach you how to speak English quickly, with very little
effort on your part; To achieve this, it is essential that the student
strictly follow the instructions that he finds in each lesson.

1. What appears in parentheses are the figurative pronunciations of


the English words. Read it as if you were reading in Spanish. We did
our best to give you the most accurate pronunciation; However, there
are some words that are special in their pronunciation, that is why we
recommend asking a person who speaks English or using the Internet
to get an idea of how certain words are pronounced that you may
doubt their pronunciation.

a. The capital letters that appear in our figurative pronunciation


should be pronounced very weakly. Example: Road (róUd) Path
b. Letters that are accented will be pronounced strongly. Example:
Pencil ..........................................................Pencil
c. When two consecutive letters appear in our figurative
pronunciation, you will have to pronounce them as if it were an
elongated sound. Example: Poor (púuR) ......... Poor, poor.
d. In our figurative pronunciation, pronounce the “Z” as people from
Spain pronounce it. Example: Nothing (názing) Nothing
e. The sound of the letter “R” in English is a sound that comes from
the throat, it is not pronounced the same as the “R” in Spanish. It is
recommended that you listen to the pronunciation of this letter
online or from someone who speaks English. Research the
pronunciation of “run" which means to run. If you can pronounce this
letter well in English, you will have a good accent. Example: run
(rran) run.
f. The letter “V” in English is pronounced by bringing the upper
teeth together with the lower lip. The letter “B” is pronounced by
bringing the upper lip and lower lip together.
2. It is essential that you memorize the words of each lesson and
know how to pronounce them well, since in many cases the
pronunciation will only be given once; however, you need to know
those pronunciations so we can move forward in the lessons. Once
you have learned the pronunciation of certain English words, focus
no longer on that, but on the spelling of the word. Remember that
when you read another book, it will not be your pronunciation that will
appear, but rather the writing. The pronunciation is added so you can
learn to say them, but don't focus your mind on it.

3. Do not move on to the next lesson if you have not yet mastered
the first one 100%, remember that this book is cumulative knowledge:
the words, verbs and grammar that you will learn in the first lesson,
you will continue to use as you advance. If you have not learned the
first lessons well, it may be difficult for you to understand or learn the
following lessons.

4. Always read aloud the words, sentences or phrases in English


so that you hear your own voice and improve your auditory sense,
also so that your mouth practices the movements or gets used to the
pronunciation of the English words. By reading aloud you will benefit
from two things: listening and practicing speaking, which is our main
goal. So always READ ALOUD

5. You will be able to learn to speak English in an estimated time of


90 days, following the steps and instructions strictly and with great
dedication. Your success in learning this language depends on the
time and interest you devote to studying each lesson in the book.
a. Study 1 hour each day, in a place where no one will interrupt you
and where you have complete concentration.
b. You will need to focus on each lesson for 10 days. Make the
necessary effort so that during these 10 days you have complete
mastery of said lesson. If you think you need more time to study a
lesson, it is advisable to study for one hour in the morning and one
hour in the afternoon. But never study for several hours at a time,
since the mind gets tired and when that happens you will no longer
be able to learn anything, you will only waste your time.

Utensils you will need for this English course:


A Notebook: In which you will write down sentences or phrases and
the grammatical rules that you will learn, you will also carry out tasks
that are assigned to you.
A Small Notebook: A small notebook so you can carry it comfortably
in your pocket, in which you will write down the everyday words of
each lesson. In this notebook you will also write words that you hear
or see during the course of the day. So you can consult the words in
the notebook while you are walking, on the bus, at the gym, at work
or at school. The idea is that you can access these words every day,
every day, to refresh your memory or review them. “Repetition is
the secret of good memory” , never forget it, the more you repeat
the words the more you will remember them.

A Pencil and/or Pen: To jot down notes in your notebook and


notebook.
PART I
FIRST LESSON
I imagine that you want, love and wish so much that you could speak
English so that you can excel in your studies, work or business. When
you start reading this book we want it to awaken in you the passion
to study it and learn this language. Remember that true passion
comes from loving something, because if you love something, you will
do everything possible to get it. Have faith in yourself that you are
capable of learning the English language. Be positive and change
your way of thinking. Because it's all in the mind, if you say you can,
you're right. Study the book with true intention and always follow the
directions.

EVERYDAY WORDS
Learn this group of words by heart, taking special care when
pronouncing the English terms, to mark the accents well and to
phoneticize the capital letters of our figurative pronunciation as with a
barely perceptible sound. In this lesson you will realize that there are

THE NOUNS

The plural of nouns in English is formed in the same way as in


Spanish, only the letter “s' is added. Example:

Sister (sister) = Sister


Sisters (sisteRs) = Sisters
Room ( ruum) = Room, bedroom
Rooms (ruums) = Rooms, bedrooms
Pen (pén) = Pen
Pens (péns) = Feathers
Hotel (joUtél) = Hotel
Hotels (joUtéls) = Hotels

So with these examples you will know how to form the plural of
nouns from now on; However, there are some exceptions to this rule
that we will learn about in the next few lessons.

THE ADJECTIVES
Adjectives in English are invariable: they are exactly the same for
singular and plural, feminine or masculine. This will save you a lot of
effort in memorizing the adjectives.

Normal (normal) = Normal, normal


Poor (púuR) = Poor, poor
Black (blak) = Black, black, black, black

secret; secrets, secrets

In English, adjectives are placed before nouns. In English it is said:


“Ablack book” = a black book, “Asmall house” = a small house,
instead of saying as in Spanish: a black book, a small house.
Examples:

A dirty fork (e déeRti fóoRk) A dirty fork.

A small table.

Anew house (e niúu jaus)


A new house.

A young man (and yang man) A young man.

A deep river (e díip riveR) A deep river.

A clean plate (e clíin pléyt) A clean plate.

A strong man (e stróng man) A strong man.

PERSONAL PRONOUNS
In English, pronouns are not omitted (I, you, he, she, it, we, they) as
in Spanish. For example: “I am in my house” in Spanish literally
translated would be: “I am in my house”, but how can you omit the
pronouns in Spanish (I, him, she, you, us, them, etc.) then The phrase
can be as follows: “I am at home.” We want you to learn practical,
well-translated English, so you will notice that we will not use literal
translations in the example sentences or phrases in this book.

I (ay) = I
You (yúu) = You, you, you,
He (jii) = He
She *(Shíi) = She

It (it) = It, she, or him


We (wí) = Us
They (déy) = They, they

Note: *we clarify that the pronunciation of “SH” is like the sound in
the word shampoo or Washington. “He” means he and “she” means
she when talking about people and the word “it” means it, him or her
when we refer to things. The use of “it” will be essential in learning
English, but it will become familiar as we move forward.

THE PRESENT OF THE VERB TO BE


Since the verb “To Be” is special and very essential in English, we will
start by focusing on the present tense of this verb which means in
Spanish: Ser or Estar. The present tense of the verb TO BE is: AM,
IS and ARE. The “is” is the singular and “are” is the plural. “Am” will
only be used to conjugate it with the pronoun “l” (ay). Example:

Am (am) means I am or I am.


IS (is) means is or is.
ARE (aR) means are or are.

I am (am) = I am or I am
You are (ar) = You are or are
He is (is) = He is or is
She is = She is or is
It is = It is or is
We are = We are or are
You are = You are or are
They are = They are or are
Practice the following out loud:
You are late.
You guys are late.
This flower is yellow.
This flower is yellow.

He is my brother.
He's my brother.

They are sisters.


They are sisters.

He is in the garden.
He is in the garden.

My son is in San Diego.


My son is in San Diego.

The sky is blue.


The sky is blue.

They are here.


They are here.

THE GERUND OR THE ENDING “ING"


The ending “ing” is widely used in English, basically they are words
ending in ando and endo in Spanish, keep that idea in mind as it will
help you in the translation.
By adding the ending “ing” to certain words they become action
words. These words are used daily along with the present tense of
the verb “to be” which is “IS and ARE”.

Come (cam) = Come


Coming (earning) = Coming
Go (goU) = Go
Going (going) = Going
Do (du) = Do
Doing (du-ing) = Doing
Work (woRk) = Work
Working (woRking) = Working
Offer (ofeR) = Offer
Offering (ofering) = Offering
Cry (cray) = Scream, cry
Crying (craying) = Screaming, crying
Plant (plant) = Plant
Planting (planting) = Planting
Smile (smayOI) = Smile
Smiling (smayling) = Smiling
Walk (wok) = Walk, stroll
Walking (woking) = Walking, strolling
Paint (peynt) = Paint
Painting (peynting) = Painting

Read the following sentences aloud:


You are smiling.
You are smiling.

He is working.
He is working.

They are walking.

He is my brother's son.

My sister and my son are in Guadalajara.


My sister and my son are in Guadalajara.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Interrogation with IS and ARE:


To ask questions with IS and ARE, all we will have to do is start the
sentence with the verb. For example: My house is small , converting
the sentence into a question, it would look like this: Is my house
small? (My house is small?)
Likewise, you can build your own questions without limits using IS
and ARE.

The answers to the questions in English are also so simple that you
can create them yourself. For this, it is important to know that the
words are used a lot: YES, NO and NOT.

Denial of IS and ARE:


To form the negation in the Present Tense we only add the word “not”
after the verb. For example: “You are not my friend”, “she is not
working”.

Usually the word NOT is used for an immediate response at the


beginning of the sentence and the word NOT is used within the
sentence as represented below; However, this is not completely
affirmative, since depending on the structure of the sentence it can
change.

Is he working?
Is he working?
-Yes, he is working.
-Yes, he is working.

Are you coming home?


You come home?
-Yes, I am coming today.
-Yes, I'm coming today.

Is your brother here?


Is your brother here?
-No, he is not here.
-No, he's not here.

Is my son in the hotel?


Is my son in the hotel?
-Yes, he is in the hotel.
-Yes, he is at the hotel.

QUESTION IN ENGLISH
You can ask questions in English as well as in Spanish with the
following words: what, how, where, when, why, etc.

QUE:
The word What (wat) means what and is used in the same way as in
Spanish.
What are you doing?
What are you doing?
-Nothing.
-Nothing.

What is that? What's that? -It is a sandwich. -It's a sandwich.

What town is this?


What city is this?
-It is Mexico City.
-It's Mexico City.

Note: If you have noticed when answering in English “It is a


sandwich”, generally in English you answer “It is a sandwich”, we add
the word “it” (it) which means “it” in Spanish. By not placing the word
"it", the answer sounds bad, and it sounds as if we were asking a
question, since by starting with "is", we automatically turn the
sentence or phrase into a question. So always when you answer a
question starting with the word “es” in Spanish in the form of
clarification, “it” is placed before the word “is” in English. Example: It
is Mexico City (it is Mexico City).
What is also widely used in admiration phrases, and for that to
happen we will always place the letter “a” after what. Example:

What a small house! What a small house!

What a good idea!


What a good idea!

What a strong man!


What a strong man!

What a beautiful flower!


What a beautiful flower!

HOW: How (jáw) generally means how.

How are you?


How are you?
-Fine, thank you.
-Fine, thanks.

How is your father?


How is your father?
-He, it's doing Ok.
-He's fine.

How are they doing?


How are they?
-They are fine.
- They are well.

How is your mother?


How is your mother?
-She is Ok.
-She is fine.

When asking about the age of people or the dimensions of


something, “how” has the meaning of “what” in Spanish.

How old are you?


How old are you?
-Seventeen years old.
-Seventeen years.

How old is your son?


How old is your son?
-He is two years old.
-He is two years old.

How long is this table?


How long is this table?
-It is very long.
-It's very long.

To ask the age in English you say: Howold are you? In this case the
word “old” (old) which means old has another meaning which would
be age in Spanish. How old are you? then it would be in Spanish:
How old are you? When answering this question, we usually use
“years old" (yíirs old) which in Spanish means "years", but if we
translate it literally it would be: years old.

Note: Take into account that if we translate this phrase literally


it would be: How old are you?
We want you to learn practical, well-spoken English, so in many
cases you will find that the translation will not be literally, but as
it should be.
WHEN:
The word When (wén) means “when”.

When are you walking?


When do you walk?
-I am walking today.
- I'm walking today.

When are you coming?


When are you coming?
-I am coming tomorrow.
-I'm coming tomorrow.

When is he doing that?


When is he doing that?
-Tomorrow morning.
-Tomorrow morning.

When are they going?


When are they going?
-Today.
-Today.

When is he coming?
When comes?
-In two days.
-In two days.

WHERE:
The word Where (werr) means “where”.

Where are you?


Where are you?
-I am with my brother.
-I am with my brother.
Where is my sister?
Where is my sister?
-She is in the house.
-She is at home.

Where is your house?


Where is your house?
-It is there.
-It's there.

Where is my money?
Where is my money?
-It is in your room.
-He's in his bedroom.

Where is my apple?
Where is my apple?
-It is in my room.
-It's in my bedroom.

Where is the hotel?


Where is the hotel?
-It is here.
-Is here.

WHY
The word Why (way) means “Why?”, and is usually answered by the
word because (bicóz) which means “because”.
Americans also use a synonym for “why” which is “How come?”
(jawcam) which means exactly the same: “Why?” Examples:
Why are you going there?
Why do you go there?
-Because I work there.
-Because I work there.

Why are you in bed?


Why are you in bed?
-Because I am sick.
-Because I'm sick.

Why are you late?


Why are you late?
-Because I woke up late.
-Because I woke up late.

How come you are late?


Why is it late?
-Because I woke up late.
-Because I woke up late.

Note: “Woke up” is the past tense of “wake up”, which means to
wake up. Later we will learn the past tense of everyday verbs.

WHICH:
The word Which (wich) is widely used in English and means which,
which, which, which, which, which, which. That is, for so many words
in Spanish you will only need to learn one in English to be able to ask
questions with “Which”.

Which is your house?


What is your house?
-It is the blue house.
-It's the blue house.
Which is your room? What is your bedroom?
-It is that one.
-That's it.

Which is my plate?
What is my plate?
-It is the small one.
-He's the little one.

What is your book?


What is your book?
-It is the big one.
-He's the big one.

Note: The word “one” (wan) means “one” in Spanish. Americans use
“one” (wan) a lot in some expressions to show greater accent,
importance to a thing and for grammatical reasons, although in reality
it does not have a meaning in the sentence or phrase. For example:
It is the small one . If you notice, one is usually used after an adjective
(yellow, small, big, beautiful, etc.) or when asking questions with
which.

QUIEN:
WHO (juu) means who, who.

Who is that?
Who is that?

-It is my brother.
-He's my brother.

Quien eres?
Who are you?
-I am your friend.
-I am his friend.

Who is that man?


Who is that man?
-He is my friend.
-He is my friend.

Note: In English you will notice that when translating into


Spanish it will not always be translated literally, word for word.
The idea is for you to learn well-spoken and practical English,
we don't want you to sound like a robot or translate literally.

SELF APPRAISAL
The idea of this book is: once you have learned the words, the
verbs, the grammar and how to ask questions and answers; The
next thing is for you to apply this knowledge so that you actually
learn to speak English. If you do not act or apply what you learn,
there will be no progress in your learning.

1. Reading: Read the following aloud and repeat it 5 times. Try to


read it as quickly as possible.

Hello, my name is Jose. I am seventeen years old. I live in Mexico


City with my dad and my mom. I have one brother and two sisters. I
work on the computer all day and night; I am working in a restaurant
with a friend in the city. I wake up in the morning and I eat a
sandwich and apple for Breakfast. I play basketball and soccer with
all my friends.

2. Next we will take some sentences and turn them into questions
and answer them. Examples:
The baby is walking.
The baby is walking.
Is the baby walking?
Is the baby walking?
-Yes, the baby is walking.
-Yes, the baby is walking.

In the same way as the previous example, you will take each of the
following sentences to form questions and answer them at the same
time. For this, it is recommended that you use a notebook that is
specifically for this purpose of learning English.

My son is very young.


My son is very young.

He is a kind man.
He is a kind man.

That's my hat.
That's my hat.

This flower is yellow.


This flower is yellow.

This pencil is blue.

This pencil is blue.

3. Create 10 questions with “IS and ARE” and also using “what, how,
when, where, etc”. These 10 questions have to be questions that you
use every day of your life and they have to be created according to
your needs. Once the questions are created, you will have to answer
them in English, also according to your needs. You can use your
notes if you wish.
Note: If you had difficulty reading the short Reading, creating the
questions and answering them, that means that you are not ready to
move on to the next lesson, please review the entire first lesson and
focus your time on the parts where you have difficulty. Remember
that the more you repeat things, the more you will remember them.
SECOND LESSON
I know you want to learn to speak English and here you have the
opportunity, because with a little time you can learn and never forget
the reason why you want to study this book, always think about the
person you will become when you finish studying the book . Never
use excuses not to study; It's time to do, to act, read and study this
book as if your life depended on it.

EVERYDAY WORDS
When the pronunciations of some words are no longer given, it is
because they were already given and you can review the previous
lesson; That's why we don't let you move on to the next lesson if you
haven't mastered it 100% yet.

When reading in English, we suggest that you always read aloud .


And when you are reading you need to focus on the writing of the
words, not focus too much on the written and figurative pronunciation.
If you focus your eyes on the pronunciation, your mind will assimilate
that. Once you know how to pronounce a word, focus your eyes on
how it is spelled and at the same time pronounce it as it should be.
The brain will assimilate writing and pronunciation at the same time.
And if you read aloud , you will also improve your pronunciation when
speaking and your ears when listening to what you are saying or
reading.

NOUNS ENDING IN “Y”


We already know that to convert a noun into plural, the letter “S” is
added. There are some words ending in “y” and to make them plural
the letter “y” is replaced or changed by “ies”. For example:

Body (bodi) = Body


Bodies (bodies) = Bodies
Army (aRmi) = Army
Armies (aRmis) = Armies

Note: There is an exception to this rule, when the letter before the
“y” is a vowel, the same general rule of adding an “s” is followed.
For example:
Day (déy) = Day
Days (déys) = Days
Boy (bóy) = Child
Boys (boys) = Children

Read the following words aloud:


Copy (cópi) = Copy
Copies (cópis) = Copies
Story (stóori) = Tale
Stories (stóoris) = Stories
Ray (rey) = Lightning
Rays (réys) = Rays

Monkey (monn-ki) = Monkey

Tuesday (tiúsdEy) = Tuesday
Wednesday (WénsdEy) = Wednesday
Thursday (ZzérsdEy) = Thursday
Friday (fráydEy) = Friday
Saturday (sáterdEy or saredEy) = Saturday
Sunday (sándEy) = Sunday

To say “Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, etc.” it is said: on


Monday, on Tuesday, on Wednesday, etc. Examples:

They are going on Thursday.


They are going on Thursday.

You are going on Monday.


You are going on Monday.
He is coming on Friday.
He's coming on Friday.

EVERYDAY VERBS
Everyday English has only 15 verbs. Since we focus your effort on
what really matters and what you will use. In other systems, you
must study more than a thousand verbs and thousands of words.
Remember that with this book you only need to learn 15
fundamental verbs that are used in daily life, less than a thousand
words to be able to speak English correctly.
The best way to learn a language is constant REPETITION AND
PERSEVERANCE of doing it every day.
The word “to” placed in front of a verb indicates that it is in the
infinitive mood, such as: to come (come); to go (go).

I.To be (tu bíi) = To be or be


2 .To have (tu jáv) = To have or have
3,To do (tu duu) = Do
4 To come (tu cam) = Come
5 To go (tu góU) = Go
6 To make (tu méyk) = To make (in the sense of creating
something)
7 .To say (tu séy) = To say
8 .To see (tu sii) = See
9 .To get (tu guét) = Get, obtain, arrive
10 .To give (tu guív) = Dar
11 .T0 take (tutéyk) = Take or carry
12-To put (tu put) = Put, place
13 .To keep (tu kíip) = Keep
14 .To send (tu sénd) = Send
15 .To let (let) = Let, allow
GERUND OF EVERYDAY VERBS
The gerund in Spanish is that part of the verb that always ends in
“ando” or “endo”, example: doing, giving, coming.
This tense in English is formed with the ending “ing” added to the end
of the verb, in the same way as we learned some words in the first
lesson. In some verbs the root must be altered a little before adding
the ending “ing" but it will be very easy to understand them. Read and
repeat the following words, until you memorize them 100%:

To do (tu dú) = Do
Doing (du-ing) = Doing
To come (tu cam) = Come
Coming (earning) = Coming
To give (tu guív) = Give
Giving (guiving) = Giving
To go (tu góU) = Go
Going = Going
To make (tu méyk) = To make
Making (méyking) = Making
To say (tu séy) = To say
Saying (séying) = Saying
To see (your sii) = See
Seeing = Seeing
To take (tutéyk) = To take or carry
Taking (téyking) = Taking or carrying
To get (tu guét) = Get, obtain, arrive
Getting (guéting) = Getting, obtaining, arriving
To keep (tu kíip) = Maintain
Keeping (kiiping) = Maintaining
To put (tu put) = Put
Putting (púting) = Putting
To let (tu let) = Leave
Letting (léting) = Leaving
To send (tu send) = Send
Sending (sénding) = Sending

Note: Remember that good memorization is acquired through


constant repetition.

Now you will be able to form sentences or phrases like the ones
presented below. Read the following sentences aloud:

My father is coming to the house.


My father is coming to the house.

He is taking a rest.
He's taking a break.

We are going to Florida.


We are going to Florida.

My sister is making the bread.


My sister is making the bread.

I am sending a letter for my sister.


I am sending a letter to my sister.
My brother is going to your room.
My brother is going to his bedroom or room.

PRESENT OF EVERYDAY VERBS


We already know that the word “to” placed in front of a verb
indicates that it is in the infinitive mood. Example: to come (come);
to go (go); to see (see); to make (make); to keep (maintain); to be
(ser or estar) to let (dejar); to send (send); to take (take); to give
(give); to get (get); to have (have or have).
To form the present tense of English verbs, simply replace the word
“to” with the personal pronouns “I, you, he, she, it, we, they”; and in
that simple way we automatically have the present tense of English
verbs formed.

Important note:
In the present tense, speaking of “he, she, or it,” an “s” is added to
the verb and also remember that it is a neuter pronoun meaning it,
him, or her referring specifically to “things.” Example: he takes, she
takes, it takes, etc.
For the verbs do and go, instead of adding an "s" when talking about
“he, she or it,” add "es" to the verb. Example: does and goes. The
word goes is pronounced "gós", and the word does is pronounced
"dás".
Read aloud and repeat the 15 verbs until they are familiar in your
mind. Remember that we will only give pronunciation of the words
you do not know yet; If you don't remember the pronunciation of a
word, check the previous pages.

Note: If you found it difficult to translate these sentences, please


repeat and carefully study the 15 verbs again. Don't continue until you
have memorized these verbs.

Read the following sentences aloud, repeat them 5 times. We


recommend that you read sentences or phrases in English faster and
faster.

She makes delicious food.

Note: 'Keep using ' is literally translated: keeps using, but it sounds
more practical to say: keep using.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

PRESENT INTERROGATIVE WITH “DO”: Remember that


questions are essential in learning a Language. In each lesson we
will learn new ways to ask questions according to what we are
learning in that lesson. Now we will learn to ask questions using the
word DO (dú). When “do” is used to ask questions it has no meaning,
it simply tells us that we are asking a question in the Present Tense.
To ask questions with “do”, we only need to put it before the personal
pronoun, that is, start the sentence or phrase with “do”. For example:

Do? (du) .....It is used to ask questions in the Present Tense.

They go............... They go


Do they go? ... They go?
You see ..............You see
Do you see? ... Do you see?

When asking questions referring to “he, she and it” in the present
tense, DOES (das) will be used instead of DO. Always remember that
in this lesson we learned that verbs conjugated in the present tense
with “He, She and It” add an “s” or “es”. When asking questions in
English, the “s” or “es” will not be added to the verbs. For example:

Does? (you give) .... It is used to ask questions in the Present


Tense for he, she and it.

She eats.
She comes.
Does she eat?
Is she coming?

He goes.
He goes.
Does he go?
Is he going?

Does she have money?

She has money?

Does he do that?
Does he do that?

So we already know how we will ask questions with “do” (dú) in the
Present Tense and when we refer to He, She and It, we will use
"does" (dás).
THE DENIAL IN THE PRESENT TENSE “DO NOT AND DOES
NOT":
To form negative phrases in the present tense we only put the words
do not " (dú nat) before the verb. And when we refer to “he, she and
¡t”, we will use “does not " (das nat).

Do not (dú nat) = No


Does not (dás nat) = No (used with he, she and it)

Examples:
She takes.
She takes.
She doesn't take.
She doesn't drink.

He makes.
He does.
He does not make.
He does not.

We put.
We put.
We do not put.
We don't put.

I make.
I do.
I do not make.
I do not do.

Exercises: Please repeat the following phrases out loud as many


times as possible until your mind becomes familiar with the use of
“do” and “does”.
They go
They go
Do they go?
They go?

I send
I send
Do I send?
Do I ship?

Does she go?


She goes?

Do we go?
We are going?
Do I make?
I do?

Does she eat?


Is she coming?

Does she send?


Does she send?
Do they take? Do they drink?

Does he go?
Is he going?

Do you put?
Do you put?

Do I say?
I mean?
Do you keep? Do you maintain?

Do they put? Do they put it?

Does he let?

Is she coming today?
-Yes, she is coming today.
-Yes, she is coming today.

Do you give a book?
-I do not give a book.
-I don't give a book.

Do you have a pencil?

-No, I don't have a pencil.
-No, I don't have a pencil.

Does he keep his word?


Does he keep his word?
-No, he does not keep his word.
-No, he doesn't keep his word.

Does it take time to do that?


Does it take time to do that?
-Yes, it takes time to do that.
-Yes, it takes time to do that.

Do you work in the morning?


Do you work in the mornings?
-No, I do not work in the morning.
-No, I don't work in the mornings.

Now we will ask questions with What, how, when, where, why, which
and who in the Present Tense and for that we will continue using DO
(dú) after these words. And as we already know DO (dú) has no
meaning when used in questions, it simply tells us that we are asking
questions in the Present Tense. Example:

QUE:
The word What (wat) means what.

What do you do?


What do you do?
- I work on my house.
- I work at home.

What do you send?


What do you send?
- I send emails.

-He comes by car or car.

WHEN:

-She comes in May.
When do you work?

-I don't know.
-Don't know.

Where do you want to eat?


Where do you want to eat?

WH^
The word Why (way) means “Why?”, and is usually answered by the
word because (bicóz) which means “because.”
Why do you go there?
Why do you go there?
-Because I work there.
-Because I work there.

Why does she come again?


Why is she coming again?
-Because she wants to.
-Because she wants to.

Why do you leave?


Why are you leaving?
-Because I need to help my mom.
-Because I need to help my mom.

WHICH:
The word Which (wích) is widely used in English and means which,
which, which, which, which, which, which. That is, for so many words
in Spanish you will only need to learn one in English to be able to ask
questions with “Which”.

Which do you want?


Which one do you want?
-I want the DVD.
-I want the DVD.

Which does she like?


Which one does she like?

Note: If the student has not familiarized himself with or memorized


the second lesson, he cannot continue, he will have to repeat the
entire lesson or the points that you think he needs to perfect; This
book will allow you to speak English in an extremely short time, as
long as you comply with the instructions to study calmly and master
each of the lessons before continuing with the next one. If you cheat
or lie to yourself, we do not promise you 100% success.

SELF APPRAISAL
The idea of this book is: once you have learned the words, the
verbs, the grammar and how to ask questions and answers, you
apply this knowledge so that you actually learn to speak in English.
If you do not act or apply what you have learned, you will not

there will be progress in your learning.

1. Reading: Read the following aloud and repeat it 5 times. Try to


read it as quickly as possible.

"Hi John. How are you? How's your new job? I am very busy at work.
I get to the office at seven in the morning and leave at around six in
the afternoon. I get an hour for lunch. In the office, I am on the
computer and the phone all day, I help my boss with a lot of work
during the day. I send a lot of emails during the day, sometimes I get
to listen to some music. I am very tired when I get home, so I just eat,
watch some television and go to bed. I work from Monday to Friday,
and on Saturday I go to the store to get some food and do my laundry.
I try to go to Church on Sunday. This next December, I am going to
visit my family and friends.

2. Make a sentence for each of the 15 everyday verbs in the present


tense exactly as you learned it, so you will have to create 15
sentences in total. They have to be sentences or phrases that you
will use every day and that relate to your needs. Example:

I take a shower in the morning.

3. Create 10 questions with “DO” and also using “what, how when,
where, etc”. These 10 questions have to be questions that you use
every day of your life and they have to be created according to your
needs. Once the questions are created, you will have to answer them
in English, also according to your needs.

4. Review the First Lesson without doing the self-assessment of it.


Read aloud to improve your pronunciation. Focus on the words,
sentences or phrases that are written in English.

Note: If you had difficulties reading the short Reading, creating the
sentences, the questions and answering them, this means that you
are not ready to move on to the next lesson; Please review the entire
second lesson and focus your time on the parts where you have
difficulty. Remember that the more you repeat things, the more you
will remember them.
THIRD LESSON
Invest time in what will really change your future and no matter how
difficult something is; Be positive and move forward because today's
sacrifices will be tomorrow's fruits.

EVERYDAY WORDS
Always read aloud please. It is very important that you do this so
that you learn faster. Always carry your notebook with you, in which
all the new words that you find in each lesson of this book should be
written, so that you can continue studying and reviewing them in the
lost moments of the day. Please do this and you will see that you will
learn much faster. We remind you: “Repetition is the secret of good
memory.”

Note: Don't forget to weakly pronounce the capital letters of our

THE USE OF “THE ,,


Articles in English are unchanged; They are exactly the same for the
singular and the plural, the feminine or the masculine. The article
“the” has two pronunciations that we will study carefully; When it is
placed before a consonant its pronunciation will be (dá) and when it
is placed before a vowel it will be pronounced (di).

The (di) = The, the, the, the, the


To the (tu di) = Ala, al, a los, a las, a lo
Of the (of di) = Of the, of the, of the, of the, of the

Example:
The pencil (da pénsil) = The pencil.
The apple (di apOI) = The apple.
The offer (di offer) = The offer.
The restaurants(da restoRants) = The restaurants.

USE OF “AYAN”
The word “a” and “an” in English mean one or one, the two words
have exactly the same meaning. “a” is used before a word that
begins with a consonant and “an” is used before a word that begins
with a vowel. Read aloud and repeat the following phrases several
times:

A Table (e tey bOI) ........... An apple a table


(an apOI) .......................... A book (e An Apple
buk) .................................. An order A book
A cell phone (e Cel foUn) An old man An order
(an old man) A cell phone
An old man
Note: When the word begins with the vowel “u” that has a “yu”
sound, “a” and not “an” should be used. For example:

A University (ey university) = A university


AUniverse (eyunivers) = One universe

USE OF “THIS and THAT'


“This” (dis) and “that” (dát) are very essential in English, so it is
suggested to know the use of it well. “This" and “that” are exactly
the same for the feminine or the masculine.
This (dis) = This, this or this
That (dát) = That, that, that, that, that, that
This plate (dis pleyt) = This plate =
That bank (dát bank) That bench =
This house (dis jáus) This house =
That soup (dát súup) That soup

Read the following phrases aloud, when you think they are already
very familiar, repeat them again:
That is my house. = That's my house.
This is a good hotel. = This is a good hotel.
This dog is very dirty. = This dog is very dirty.
That's my homework. = That is my task.
This house is very small. = This house is very small.
This is my Passport. = This is my passport.
This is my school. = This is my school.
This is my girlfriend. =This is my girlfriend.

USE OF “THESE and THOSE”


“These” (díiiis) is the plural of “this” which in Spanish means: these
or these. “Those" (dóUs) is the plural of “that" which in Spanish
means: those, those, those or those. Examples: This book (dis buk)
= This book These books (díis buk) = These books
That professor (dát profésoR) = That professor
Those professors(dóUs profésoRs) = Those professors

Read the following phrases aloud, when you think they are already
very familiar, repeat them again:

These are my shoes.


These are my shoes.

Those houses are clean.


Those houses are clean.

This taxi is small.


This taxi is small.
These are his notes.
These are his notes.

Those flowers are beautiful.


Those flowers are beautiful.

That is the road to Mexico City.


That is the way to Mexico City.

Please do not continue until you know how to use “this, that, these
and those” perfectly. As we already know that the secret of a good
memory is REPETITION”, we will review these words again:

THIS (dis) .......... This, this or this (indicates that a person or thing is
nearby).
THESE (diiiis) .... These or these (indicates that several people or
several things are nearby).
THAT (dat) ....... That, that, that, that, that, that (indicates person or
thing that is far away).
THOSE (dóUs)... Those, those, those, those (indicates that several
people or things are far away).

Read the following aloud and write in your notebook other


sentences or phrases that may be very useful during the day:

Those papers are for you.


Those papers are for you.

These animals are fat.


These animals are fat.

Those books are mine.

Those books are mine.

That is a beautiful garden.


That is a beautiful garden.
Those boys are very bad.
Those children are very bad.

That's my bedroom.
That's my bedroom.

This is a warm country.


This is a hot country.

This food is good.


This food is good.

That's my room.
That is my bedroom or room.

Those are my friends.


Those are my friends.

USE OF “THAT WITH MEANING “WHAT”


You already know the word “that” in its meaning: that, that, that,
that, that or that. “That” also means “that” depending on how it is
used within the sentence or phrase. For example:

I see that you are wrong.


I see that you are wrong.

They say that he is sick.

They say he is sick.

He says that we are brothers. He says we are brothers.

That coffee that you have is mine.


That coffee you have is mine.

Your dad says that that is wrong.


His dad says that's wrong.

Let my son know that I am working.


Let my son know I'm working.

FUTURE TENSE OF EVERYDAY VERBS


Learning the future tense of verbs is the easiest, you will only need
to know one word so that from now on you will know how to convert
verbs into the future tense. “Will” (wíI) placed before the verb
becomes the Future Tense of said verb.

Will (wíl).... Prefixed to the verb, it converts said verb to the future
tense.

We remind you that the best way to memorize and learn a language
is through constant repetition. Read the following sentences aloud
until you are familiar with them:

I have = I have
I will have = I will have
We do = We do
We will do = We will do
He goes = He goes
He will go = He will go
They come = They come
They will come = They will come
He makes = He makes (to create something)
He will make = He will make (to create something)
She keeps = She keeps
She will keep = She will keep
You let = You leave
You will let = You will leave
You get = You get, you get, you arrive
You will get = You will get, you will get, you will arrive
He gives = He gives
He will give = He will give
You see = You see
You will see = You will see
They send = They send
They will send = They will send
I say = I say
I will say = I will say

Note: Keep in mind that in the Future Tense the “s” or “es” is not
added to the verbs when referring to “he, she and it”, that only
happens in the Present Tense of the verbs. Repetition: Only the
letter “s” or “es” is added to the verbs when talking about “he,
she and it” in the Present Tense. You can see the highlighted
phrases above that you just learned.

As you already realized, learning the future tense of verbs is very


easy; However, you need to repeat and practice a lot so that you do
not have difficulty in the lessons you will learn next. Practice and
repeat the following many times:

I will be here all morning.


I'll be here all morning.
You will have to work tomorrow.
You will have to work tomorrow.

She will do that for you.


She will do that for you.
You will eat in the morning.
You will come in the morning.

They will come today.


They will come today.

I will go to New York.


I'll go to New York.

She will go tomorrow.


She will go tomorrow.

I will go with you.


I will go with you.

He will make that food for you.


He will make that meal for you.

He will say that.


He will say so.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

THE INTERROGATION WITH “WILL”:


To interrogate or ask questions in the future tense, all you have to
do is put the word will before the personal pronouns (I, you, he, she,
it, we, they). For example:

You will go tomorrow.


You will go tomorrow.

Will you go tomorrow?


Will you go tomorrow?
Will I eat in the morning?
Will he come in the morning?

Practice and repeat the following phrases out loud:

They will eat. They will come.

They will send. will send. Will
Will they send? they send? You
You will make. will make. Will
Will you make? you? You will say.
You will say. Will Will you say?
you say?
LANEGATION IN FUTURE TENSE:
To make the negation in the future tense we only have to place the
word “not” between “will” and the verb. For example:

I will not do that for you.


I won't do that for you.

He will not go with you.


He won't go with you.

They will not come until tomorrow.

SELF APPRAISAL
1. Reading: Read the following aloud and repeat it 5 times. Try to
read it as quickly as possible.

We are in a hotel in Los Cabos. The supermarket is behind the hotel.


We will go to the beach tomorrow morning. In the afternoon we are
thinking about eating lunch at a nice restaurant. The food in Mexico
is fantastic, I love to eat here. My friend likes to walk on the beach.
Next week we will have a meeting at the school. You should come
next time. It is a beautiful place. The hotel has a huge pool with a nice
view of the ocean. I will call you every night to let you know what we
are doing. I hope things are going well at work. I will be back soon.

2. Make a sentence for each of the 15 everyday verbs in the


FUTURE Tense, just as you learned it; That is, you will have to
create 15 sentences in total. They have to be sentences or phrases
that you will use every day and that relate to your

needs. Example:

I will take a shower in the morning.

3. Create 10 questions with “WILL” and also using “what, how, when,
where, etc.” These 10 questions have to be questions that you will
use every day of your life and they have to be created according to
your needs. Once the questions are created, you will have to answer
them in English, also according to your needs.

4. Review the Second Lesson without doing the self-assessment of


it. Read aloud to improve your pronunciation. Focus on the words,
sentences or phrases that are written in English.

Note: If the student has not familiarized himself with or learned by


heart the Third Lesson, he cannot continue, he will have to repeat the
entire lesson or the points that he believes he needs to perfect; This
book will allow you to speak English in an extremely short time, as
long as you comply with the instructions to study calmly and master
each of the lessons before continuing with the next one.
FOURTH LESSON
We all have a dream and sometimes it is difficult to obtain it, but
remember that each step you take is one more step to reach the goal.
“Little things make big things.” Never give up on achieving your goals.
Keep studying for at least one hour every day!

EVERYDAY WORDS
Always carry your notebook with you, in which all the new words that
you find in each lesson of this book should be written, so that you can
continue studying and reviewing them in the lost moments of the day.

PAST OF VERB TO BE"


Just as we learned in the first lesson the present tense of the verb “to
be” which are “is” and “are”; Now we will learn the past tense of this
verb, which are “was” and “were”. It is very simple, but it is very
necessary that you learn to use the Past Tense, since it is used daily
in conversations.
WAS .................... Past of “IS”
WERE ............... Past of “ARE”

I was = I was/was or was/went


You were = You were/was or was/was
He was = He was/was or was/was
She was = She was/was or was/was
It was = Was/was or was/was
We were = We were/were or we were/were
You were = You were/were or were/were

INTERROGATION WITH WAS AND WERE


To ask questions with WAS and WERE, all we have to do is start the
sentence with the verb. For example: My brother was here. (My
brother was here), converting the sentence into a question, would
read as follows: Was my brother here? (Was my brother here?)
Likewise, you can construct your own questions without limits using
WAS and WERE.

WAS and WERE denial:


To form the negation in the Past Tense, we just add the word “not”
after the verb. For example: “I was not here today”, “You were not
taking a shower”.

Were you in Los Angeles?


Were you in Los Angeles?
-No, I was not in Los Angeles.
-No, I was not in Los Angeles.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

PAST INTERROGATIVE WITH “DID”:


Now we will learn to ask questions using the word DID (did). When
“did” is used to ask questions it has no meaning, it simply tells us that
we are asking a question in the Past Tense . To ask questions with
“did” we only need to put it before the personal pronoun, or in other
words start the sentence or phrase with “did”. For example:

She meat She came


Did she eat? Did she come?

Important note: You will notice that when questions are asked
in the Past Tense, the verb remains in the present tense. The
word “did” is what tells us that the question is already in the
past tense and it is not necessary to place the verb in the past
tense. For example:

You said that. You told that.


Did you say that? Did you say that?

It is very easy to ask questions in the past tense with “did”, but you
will have to study it well until your mind has no difficulty remembering
it. Repeat the following questions and phrases as many times as
possible out loud, even if you already know them, since repetition or
practice is essential for good memorization.

She meat She came


Did she eat? Did she come?
I have felt He sent Did he send?
Did he send? I saw
I saw Did I see?
Did I see? You did
You made You did?
Did you make? You got
You got Did you get it?
Did you get? you said
You said Did you say?
Did you say? We take
Did we take? Do we drink?

THE DENIAL IN THE PAST TENSE “DID NOT':


To form negative sentences in the Past Tense we only put the
words “did not” (did nat) before the verb.

The words “did not” indicate that it is spoken in the past tense, but
you have to be sure to place the verb it precedes in the present tense
and not in the past tense. For example: “I did” is said: “I made”; but “I
did not do” is said: "I did not make.”

Read and repeat the following out loud many times, so that you
become familiar with the use of “did not”:

You see ........................ You see

Note: The word “one” (wan) means “one” in Spanish. Americans use
“one” (wan) a lot in some expressions to show greater emphasis or
importance to something, although in reality it does not have a
meaning in the sentence or phrase. For example: I like the Yellow
one , The small one is very nice. If you notice, “one” is usually used
after an adjective (yellow small, big, beautiful, etc.) or when asking
questions with which.

QUIEN:

SELF APPRAISAL
1. Reading : Read the following aloud and repeat it 5 times. Try to
read it as quickly as possible.

My brother is not feeling well. He went at a restaurant last night and


got home at 10 pm.
He has a headache and feels nauseous. I think he had too much to
drink and the food made him sick. He said he went to a pharmacy to
get some medicine but it didn't work. This normally does not happen
to him when he goes to a restaurant. I am waiting for him to call me
so I can go to the doctor with him.

2. Make a sentence for each of the 15 everyday verbs in the PAST


tense as you learned it; That is, you will have to create 15
sentences in total. They have to be sentences or phrases that you
will use every day and that relate to your needs. Example:

I came to work on Sunday.

3. Create 10 questions with “DID” and also using “what, how, when,
where, etc”. These 10 questions have to be questions that you use
every day of your life, and they have to be created according to your
needs. Once the questions are created, you will have to answer
them in English, also according to your needs.

4. Review the Third Lesson without doing the self-assessment of it.


Read aloud to improve your pronunciation. Focus on the words,
sentences or phrases that are written in English.

Note: If you had difficulty reading the small Reading, creating the
sentences, the questions and answering them, that means that you
are not ready to move on to the next lesson, please review the entire
fourth lesson and focus your time on the parts that you have difficulty.
Remember that the more you repeat things, the more you will
remember them.
FIFTH LESSON
“Do difficult things so that your life is easy, because if you do easy
things your life will be difficult.” Many times we complain and do
nothing to change our situation, let's change our way of thinking and
do things, because if we don't do them today, we will never do them.
Be willing to study for an hour every day without anyone telling you.

EVERYDAY WORDS
Before (bifóoR) = Before; in front of
Can (ken) = Power
Study (stadi) = Study
Now(naw) = Now, now
Fish (fish) = Fish

WORDS ENDING IN “T1ON”:


Most Spanish words ending in “ción” end in English in “tion” (shon);
The writing of these words is almost the same and their meaning is
the same. The pronunciation (shon) is the same as in the words:
shampoo, Washington.

Note: Every time you study an explanation, understand it well,


because if you understand the explanation given, it will save you a
lot of time in understanding the content. There is no rush to know all
the content of the book, the idea is to learn each lesson well before
moving forward.

Observation (observéy SHon) = Observation


Operation (operéySHon) = Operation
Organization (organiséy SHon) = Organization Attention

COMPOUND WORDS:
It is very common in English to join one word with another, thus
forming a new one. For example: Milkman (milkman) ... Dairy. (If we
translated milkman literally into Spanish, it would mean Milk-man)

The pronunciation of compound words is the same as that


corresponding to each word separately. It is recommended that you
focus your time on understanding these words, since they will be
very useful to you.

THE ENDINGS ER and OR


You already learned that by adding the ending “ing” and “ly” to
some words, we get a new one.
By adding the ending “or” or “er” to some nouns (person or thing)
we will form a new word. The same thing happens in the Spanish
language. For example:

Paint (péynt) ................ Paint


Painter (péynteR) ...... Painter

He realized that by adding “er" to the previous word he gave us a


new one referring to the work or occupation of a
person . These words are very useful in English, so it is
necessary that you repeat and practice them many times until you
have complete control or memorization of them.

IRREGULAR PLURALS OF NOUNS


Nouns ending in o, s, sh, ch, x, form their plural by adding “es”
instead of “s”. Just remember this rule

If the word ends with "ch" and has a sound like "k", only one "s" is
added to form its plural. For example:

Stomachs (stomaks) ...Stomachs

Nouns ending in T or “fe” replace these letters with “ves” when


converting them into plural. For example:

Leaf ..........................Sheet
Leaves (líivs).......... Knife Blades (nayf) Knife
Knives (náyvs) .........Knives

WORDS WITH THE ENDING “ED”


We have learned that adding some endings to some words creates
new ones. The ending “ed” in English, added to certain words,
indicates the action in the past tense. These words, in addition to
some being nouns, are also used as verbs.

THE USE OF “HA/E” WITH THE TERMINATION “ED n


In English, the verb “to have” is often used with words that have the
ending “ed.” In this way of using "have", it is used as the past
participle in Spanish. For example: “I have walked” which in English
would be: “I have walked”. Very important, when referring to “he,
she and it” you will have to use the word “has” instead of “have”. For
example: “She has walked”, or “He has walked”.

She has copied my homework.


She copied my homework.

Your baby has cried every day. Your baby has cried every day.

She has ironed your shirt.


She has ironed his shirt.

She has answered my phone.


She has answered my phone.

It has rained this morning.


It rained this morning.

I have talked with my brother.


I have spoken with my brother.

I have painted that house.

I have painted that house.

I have needed boxes.

You have stopped. You have stopped.

I have walked every day with her.

and my car.

PAST PARTICIPLE OF EVERYDAY VERBS All you need to


know to conjugate an English verb is to know its present, past and
past participle, compared to Spanish there are very few words you
have to learn. You will notice that some verbs like “let and put” are
the same in all three tenses; others like “have, send, make, get, say
and keep”, have the same past and participle; Keep this in mind, as
it will make it much easier for you to learn the past participles of
everyday verbs much faster.
As we have learned, the best way to learn a language is through
constant repetition; For example: to learn the three tenses of the
verb “to go”, all you have to do is repeat several times: go, went,
gone. When you have memorized these words, you will immediately
know that "go" corresponds to the present, "went" to the past, and
"gone" to the past participle.
Present Past Participle
Had (jad) = Had/had
Done (dan) = Done
Have Had Gone = Gone
Do Did Made (méyd) = Made
Go Went Come (cam) = Come
Make Made Given (guiven) = Given
Come Came Sent (sent) = Sent
Give Gave Let (let) = Left
Send Sent Been (bin) = Been or state
Let let Said (séd) = Said
Be Was/Were Kept (kept) = Maintained
Say Said Seen (siin) = Seen
Keep Kept Put (put) = Position
See Saw Taken(téy ken) = Taken/carried away
Put Put Got (gát) = Achieved, obtained, arrived
Take Took
Get Got In English, the verb “to have” is often used with
past participles. For example: “I have come”
which in English would be: “I have come.” Remember, when
referring to “he, she and it” you will have to use the word “has”
instead of “have”. For example: “She has come”, “He has come”.

The past participle is of equal use as in Spanish and English. So it


won't be a hindrance for you. And furthermore, if
legacy this far, it is because you have the will and are able to learn
this language and you also have the power in yourself to do so.
Read aloud, study and practice many times or following:

eat (cam) .................. I come


meat (keym) ............. I came
have come(cam)...I have come

say (séy) .............. I say


said (thirst) ........... I said
have said(séd)... I have said

go (góU) ................ I'm coming


went (went) .......... I went
have gone...I have gone

put ......................... I put


put ........................ I put

EXERCISE:
Please do not move on to the next lesson in the book until you have
100% memorized and have complete control of this lesson. Read the
following aloud and listen carefully to your own voice when reading,
we suggest that you focus more on the English phrases. If you do not
remember the pronunciation of some words, we suggest you review
the previous pages.

He has had some money.


He has had some money.

I have given a soup-plate.


I have given a soup plate.

He has done his work.

Important Note: If you find it difficult to read these sentences or


phrases and also find it difficult to translate them, it means that you
still need to memorize the words of each lesson well or perhaps you
are studying too quickly. It is advisable to repeat previous lessons
every time you start a new lesson.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Interrogation with “have' 1 with the Past Participle:


To ask questions with “have”, all we have to do is start the sentence
with this same verb. For example: You have taken a shower ,
converting the sentence into a question, it would look like this: Have
you taken a shower? (Have you taken a shower?). If you have
noticed it is the same way we ask questions with “IS and ARE” and
also with “WILL”. It's very simple right?
Remember that when referring to “he, she and ¡t” you will have to use
the word “has” instead of “have”. For example: He has taken a
shower , when converted into a question it would look like this: Have
he taken a shower? (Has he taken a shower?)

Negation of the Past Participle:


To make the negation with the Past Participle we only have to place
the word “not” between “have” and the verb.

For example: You have not taken a shower (You have not taken a
shower) or we can say: He has not taken a shower (He has not
taken a shower). Keep this in mind and understand the rules perfectly
and it will be much easier to learn this language.

THE NUMBERS
You will realize that learning to count in English is very easy, since it
is the same as in the Spanish language. Please memorize the
numbers 100% and you will not have any difficulty in using them.
We will learn numbers in the most efficient way as a child is taught,
focusing on the writing and pronunciation of each number:

The numbers from 0 to 9 are basic to form many numbers to infinity.

0 . Zero (zzíroU)
1 . One (wan)
2 . Two (you)
3 . Three (zríi)
4 . Four (four)
5 . Five (fayv)
6 . Six (siks)
7 . Seven (sevEn)
8 . Eight (eyt)
9 . Nine (nayn)

The numbers from 10 to 20 are unions of the basic numbers from


zero (0) to nine (9) but they are still special in their pronunciation in
English , so we will learn them by heart.

10 . Have (have)
11 . Eleven
12 . Twelve
13 .- Thirteen(zéeRtíin)
14 .- Fourteen (FooRtíin)
15 .- Fifteen (fiftiin)
16 .- Sixteen (sikstíin)
17 .- Seventeen (séventíin)
18 .- Eighteen (éytiin)
19 .- Nineteen (nayntíin)
20 .- Twenty (tuénti)

The pronunciation of numbers in English from now on will be much


easier, since we will only need to know the numbers in tens and the
only thing we will do is add one (1) to nine (9) to each of these
numbers which follow below:

20.- Twenty (tuénti) 60.- Sixty (sixti)


30 . Thirty (zzeeRi) 70.- Seventy (seveny)
40.- Forty (fÓoRi) 80.- Eighty (eyri)
50.- Fifty (fífti) 90.- Ninety (nayri)
21 .- Twenty-one (tuénti-wan)
22 . Twenty-two (tuénti-tuu)
23 .- Twenty-three (tuénti-zrí i)
24 .- Twenty-four (tuénti-foor)
25 .- Twenty-five (tuénti-fay v)
26 .- Twenty-six (tuénti-six)
27 .- Twenty-seven (tuénti-seven)
28 .- Twenty-eight (tuénti-eyt)
29 .- Twenty-nine (tuénti-nay n)

After 29 follows 30 and we continue doing the same, adding from 1


to 9 to thirty (30), then 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90 until we reach 99.

30 .- Thirty (ZzeeRi)
31 .- Thirty-one (zzeeRi -wan)
32 .- Thirty-two (zzeeRi -tuu)
41 .- Forty -one(f óoRi-wan)
49 .- Forty-nine(fooRi-nay n)
51 .- Fifty-one (fifti-wan)
61 .- Sixty-one (sixti-wan)
72 .- Seventy-two (seveny-tuu)
86 .- Eighty-six (hey ri-six)
91 .- Ninety - one (nay ri-wan)
99 .- Ninety - nine (nayri-nay n)

After having reached “ninety nine” (99), “one hundred” (100) follows.
Just as in Spanish after “one hundred" we start adding from 1 to 99
to get to Two hundred (200), then we do the same by adding from 1
to 99 and we get to Three hundred (300). Example:

100 .- One Hundred (wan jandred)


101 .- One hundred and one
102 .- One hundred and two
103 .- One hundred and three
105 .- One hundred and five
107 .- One hundred and seven
109 .- One hundred and nine
111 .- One hundred and Eleven
125 .- One hundred and twenty-five
130 .- One hundred and thirty
140 .- One hundred and forty
148 .- One hundred and forty-eight
200 .- Two hundred (tuu jandred)
201 .- Two hundred and one
275 .- Two hundred and seventy-five
298 .- Two hundred and ninety-eight
300 .- Three hundred (zzrii jandred)
400 .- Four hundred (foor jandred)
437 .- Four hundred and thirty-seven
500 .- Five hundred (fayv jandred)
559 .- Five hundred and fifty-nine
600 .- Six hundred (six jandred)
627 .- Six hundred and twenty-seven
700 .- Seven hundred (seven jandred)
779 .- Seven hundred and seventy-nine
800 .- Eight hundred (eyt jandred)
899 .- Eight hundred and ninety-nine
900 .- Nine hundred (nayn jandred)
901 .- Nine hundred and one
945 .- Nine hundred and forty-five
999 .- Nine hundred and ninety-nine

Note: When the pronunciation is no longer being given, it is because


it was already given to you previously and it is assumed that you
already have that pronunciation memorized, that way you will realize
if you are actually studying well or if you are just jumping from one
page to another .

Now that we know how to count from 1 to 999, what follows is “One
thousand” (1,000) which is one thousand in Spanish, from now on
we will start with 1,001 until we reach 1,999 to be able to reach “two
thousand” (2,000), and so on until you reach “One million”
(1,000,000) which is one million in Spanish. Example:

1,000.- One thousand (wan zTausand)


1,001.- One thousand and one
1,002.- One thousand and two
1.165. - One thousand one hundred and sixty-five
1.258. - One thousand two hundred and fifty-eight
1.343. - One thousand three hundred and forty-three
1.510. - One thousand five hundred and ten
1.686. - One thousand six hundred and eighty-six
2,000.- Two thousand (you zTausand)
2,645.- Two thousand six hundred and forty-five
3,000.- Three thousand (zrii zTausand)
10,000.- Ten thousand
20,200.- Twenty thousand two hundred
100,000.- One hundred thousand
200,300.- Two hundred thousand and three hundred
900,000.- Nine hundred thousand
1,000,000.- One million (wan milien)

ORDINAL NUMBERS
To form ordinal numbers we will only have to add the letters “th” to
the end of the cardinal numbers. For example: six is six in Spanish,
adding “th” becomes “sixth” (sixz) which means sixth.
The exceptions would be: first, second, and third, since these are
written very differently than what this rule of adding the “th” mentions.
There will also be other numbers that will change their structure a
little, for example: Fifth (fífz) Fifth

First (fiiRst)....................... First


Second ..........................Second
Third (zzéeRd) ............. Third
Fourth (FooRz).............. Room
Fifth (fifz) .......................... Fifth
Sixth ..............................Sixth
Seventh (sévEnz)........... Seventh
Eighth (éytz) ...................... Eighth
Ninth (náynz).................Nineth
Tenth ............................. Tenth
Eleventh (ilévenz) .........Eleventh,eleventh
Twelfth (tuélvz)..............Twelfth, tenth second
Thirteenth (zéeRtíinz). Thirteenth, thirteenth

these sentences or phrases in English, it means that you have not
learned the previous lessons 100%, please go back and review what
you still think you need to learn. If you are having trouble translating
in your mind or understanding the translation of what you are reading,
it is because you need to invest a little more time learning this lesson.

preposition they form a new verb or meaning. For example: “Go out”
means “Exit”. Understand this way of making new verbs, so you can
create and learn many more without difficulty. Remember that you
can also conjugate these verbs in Past Tense, Future Tense, etc.

preposition, keep in mind that this type of verb or vocabulary is used
a lot in the English language. So that you relate to those who speak
English or when listening on television or the internet you will become
aware of other verbs with prepositions. Keep learning and increase
your vocabulary because the more words you know, the broader your
knowledge will be in speaking this language. Never settle for what
you have learned so far: investigate, ask questions and learn
more on your own.

the Sixth Lesson, he cannot proceed further; You will have to repeat
the entire lesson or the points that you think you need to perfect. This
book will allow you to speak English in an extremely short time, as
long as you comply with the instructions to study calmly and master
each of the lessons before continuing with the next one.
SEVENTH LESSON

IRREGULAR PLURALS:
There are nouns whose plurals are formed in a very different way
from what we have learned. Learn them by heart as there are very
few that have this particular structure.

MAN (man) = Man


MEN (men) = Men
WOMAN (wúman) = Woman
WOMEN (wúmen) = Women
TOOTH (youuTzz) = Tooth
TEETH (tiiTzz) = Teeth
FOOT(foot) = Foot

Always remember these words:


SCISSORS (síseRs) = Scissors (they are always plural)
SHEEP (SHíip) = Sheep (it is the same for the plural as for the
singular)
IMPERATIVE MODE OF VERBS
The imperative mood is the mode through which orders are given. It
is very easy to understand how the imperative of English verbs is
formed, we will only have to start the sentence or phrase with the
verb. For example:

Let me go. =Let me go.


Give me my computer. = Give me my computer.
Get me that money. = Get me that money.
Eat tomorrow. = Come tomorrow.
Be a good boy. = Be a good child.
Come with me. =Come with me.
Get me that book. = Get me that book.
Do this today. =Do this today.
Say something. = Say something.
Go to Las Vegas. = Go to Las Vegas.
Doyourwork. =Do your job.
Go with him. = Go with him.
Keep your word. = Keep your word.

Note: Now you can form many sentences or phrases according to


your needs. Do not forget that once “the rule or fundamental
principle of something” is learned, it is put into practice to improve it.

PERSONAL PRONOUNS
It is essential that you know English personal pronouns with
absolute perfection, so we will focus on them again, remember that
constant repetition is the key.
secret of good memory.

I (ay) .............. I
You ............... You
You ............... You He (hee) He She (shíi) She It (it) It, He, she
We (wi) ......... we, we
They (dey).... They, they

me (me) ........... me, my


You .................... him (to you)
You .................... them
Him (jim) ............ Read the)
Her (jéR).......... La, le (her) It (it) It, it, it
us ...................... Nos (to us or to us) Them (dém).... Them (to them)

Note: Always keep in mind that “You” is the same for singular and
plural, that is, “You” means you or you.

POSSESSIVE PRONOUNS
Now we will study possessive pronouns, which will be very easy for
you to understand, because they are derived from personal
pronouns, and it is very important that you memorize them and have
a perfect knowledge of them.

My (máy) = My, my
Mine (máyn) = Mine, mine, mine, mine
Your (yúR) = Su, sus (of you, of you)
Yours (yúRs) = Yours, yours; yours, yours
His G íz ) = His, his, his, his, his, his (his)
Her (jéeR) = His, his (hers)
Hers (jéeRs) = His, hers (hers)
Its (its) = Their, their, theirs, theirs, theirs, theirs (of it)
Our (áwR) = Our, our; our, our
Ours (áwRs) = Ours, ours; our, our
Their (déeiR) = Su, sus (of them, of them)
Theirs (déeiRs) = Theirs, theirs, theirs, theirs (theirs, theirs)

ANOTHER FORM OF POSSESSION WITH 'S


The form of possession explained below is also widely used in
English. When talking about people or living beings, do the following:
place the name of the owner followed by 's and then the object that
belongs to them; for example: My sister's computer (may sisters
compiurer) which means in Spanish: My sister's computer. You will
easily master this rule of possession since it is extremely simple. This
form of possession is used daily in conversations. The 's has the
same sound as the “s”. Example:

My friend's house, (may frendss jaus) - The pronunciation is like an


elongated “S” sound.

Study the following examples and repeat them several times out
loud, until you master this form of possession through the 's:

This is my daughter's room.


This is my daughter's bedroom.

This is my brother's bed.

This is my brother's bed.

That is my friend's house.


That's my friend's house.

That is my father's toothbrush.


That's my father's toothbrush.
This is my brother-in-laws wife.
This is my brother-in-law's wife.

That is my son's reaction.


That's my son's reaction.

When one is talking about things, one uses "of", example: The
rooms of the house, which means: The rooms of the house.
Examples of possession when it comes to things:

The rooms of the house are very small.


The rooms in the house are very small.

I don't like the noise of the wind.


I don't like the noise of the wind.

The streets of the city are clean.


The city streets are clean.

The sound of the rain is beautiful.


The sound of rain is beautiful.

REFLEXIVES PRONOUNS
The reflexive pronouns in English are: myself, myself, himself,
herself, themselves, ourselves, themselves. These will

obtained by adding the ending “self” or “selves” to the pronouns,


they are very easy to understand, and their use is essential in the
English language. Study and repeat until you have the following
words and phrases memorized:

Self (sélf) = Same, himself, own


Selves (sélvs) = Themselves, themselves, own (Plural of self)
My (may) ......................me, my
Myself ...........................Myself
I am doing it myself. I'm doing it myself.

Your (yúuR) ..................His, his (of you, from you)


Yourself (yuuRsélf) .............. Yourself
Yourselves (yúuRselvs)....Yourselves
You will do that yourself. You will do that yourself.
Go by yourselves. Go yourselves.

Him (jim) ............................... him, him


Himself (jimself) ................... The same
He will make himself his dinner.
He will make his own dinner.

Her (jéeR)............................ His, his (hers)


Herself ............................... She herself
She got there by herself.

It (it) ...................... It, He, she, it, the, him


Itself...................... Same, the same, the same (neutral)
It was working by itself.

Them Them (to them, to them)

To help assimilate the pronouns completely, let's review them all


together.

I (ái) ................................... I
me (me) ....................... me, me
My (may) ...................... My, my

VERY IMPORTANT NOTE:


In English, pronouns cannot be omitted (I, you, he, she, it, we, they),
as is usually done in the Spanish language. In Spanish we can say:
I went to the store (omitting the pronoun “I”). They are in my house
(omitting them). In English we cannot omit or remove the pronouns,
they must always be present. If we do not include the pronouns,
the phrase or sentence would sound bad and other people would not
understand us. Since you already know this, you will realize that
when translating into Spanish it is not necessary to place pronouns,
but in English we must always place them. The Spanish pronouns in
parentheses are those that can be omitted. Examples:

She is kind to everyone.

(She) Is kind to everyone.

I am working with my dad.


(Me) I'm working with my dad.

We were late.
(We) Were behind.
He is very sick.
(He is very ill.

I am very well.
(I'm very well.

He was playing soccer.


(He was playing soccer.

They are late.


(They) Are behind.

They sent money.


(They) Sent money.

We are sending money.


(We) are sending money.

We are very tired.


(We're very tired.

SELF APPRAISAL
1. Reading: Read the following aloud and repeat it 5 times. Try to
read it as quickly as possible.

Hello, l'm Francisco. I am 24 years old and I have moved into my new
apartment. I love it! I can do whatever I want and I don't have my
parents with me. I am very happy to be here. During the day I work
in a restaurant from 10 am to 9 pm. It is hard work but it is fun. I meet
interesting people every day; a lot of them come to eat at night. I love
the weather in this city, it doesn't rain or snow I'll enjoy living here.

2. Make 10 sentences using the imperative moods, possessive and


reflexive pronouns as you learned in this lesson. They have to be
sentences or phrases that you will use every day and that relate to
your needs. Example:

Come with me right now. This house is mine.

3. Create 10 questions using personal, possessive and reflexive


pronouns, just as you learned in the Questions and Answers section.
These 10 questions have to be questions that you will use every day
of your life and they have to be created according to your needs.
Once the questions are created, you will have to answer them in
English, also according to your needs. Example:

Is this pen yours?

-Yes, it is mine.

4. Review Lesson Six without doing the self-assessment of it. Read


aloud to improve your pronunciation. Focus on the words,
sentences or phrases that are written in English.
EIGHTH LESSON
Remember that you have a purpose, and never give up, think about
where you want to go in your life. Do things day after day, while
others waste their time, you must be working and studying because
if you want to have a different result, be different and do things
differently. “Create a life and don't live a life”, because actually you
have the power to transform your life into a great success by learning
to speak the English language.

CONTRACTIONS IN ENGLISH
A contraction is the shortened form of a word or combination of
words, often used when we don't want to use the full form. In these
short forms, missing letters are replaced by an apostrophe (). The
use of contractions is very frequent in English, so it is essential that
you learn to use them correctly. Memorize these contractions and
their pronunciations that appear in parentheses, since they are
widely used in the English language. The most common contractions
are:

Contractions Isn't (isEnt)


Aren't (arEnt) Wasn't (wasEnt) Weren't (werEnt) Don't
Words (dont) Doesn't (dásEnt) Didn't (didEnt) Won't (wont)
Is not Are Haven't (javEnt) Hasn' t (jasEnt)

Study and read aloud the sentences that follow, remember that the
pronunciations must be learned by heart when studying the
vocabularies that appear in the book, so that you will no longer find
pronunciation when practicing. If you have trouble remembering the
pronunciation of a word, review the previous lessons. By studying
these sentences or phrases you will realize your level of learning, if
it is very easy for you to read and translate this in your mind, it is
because you have dedicated 100% of your time to studying it, but if
it is a little difficult for you or a lot, it means that you are not
dedicating the necessary time, you are going too fast or you have
no desire to learn to speak English.

THE PREFIX “UN”


The prefix “UN” pronounced (an), placed in front of certain words in
English, gives us an opposite meaning to that same word before
this prefix is added.
The English prefix “un” corresponds to the Spanish prefixes “des” or
“n”. In Spanish we say, for example: do, and when we want to
express something opposite to that word, we put the prefix “des”
before it, and the word becomes undo. The same thing happens
with “in” in Spanish: adding “in” to the dependent word makes it
independent. This happens exactly with the prefix “UN” in English,
repeat the following words over and over again until you memorize
them:

Happy (japi) ............................. Happy

Unhappy ........................................ Unhappy, unhappy


-They are unhappy people.
They are unhappy people.

Necessary (nésesari) ...............Necessary


Unnecessary (annécesari) ...Unnecessary
-That is unnecessary.

Kind (káynd) .............................. Kind


Unkind (ankáynd) .....................Bad
-You are very unkind to him.
You are very mean to him.

Equal ......................................... Equal


Unequal (an-ícuOl) ...................Desigual -It was an unequal fight. It
was an unequal fight.

Married (merid).........................Married
Unmarried (anmerid) ................Single -That man is unmarried. That
man is single.

LEARNING THE HOURS


It is very important that you learn to tell or give the time to someone,
which will be very easy, you will only have to learn very little
vocabulary for this, since you have memorized the numbers.
In Spanish and English, the word minutes may or may not be used;
For example, you can say: It is twenty minutes past seven, or you
can simply say: It is twenty past seven. Study and memorize
the following words:

Watch (waTch) = Watch (handheld)


Clock (clók) = Clock (wall)
O'clock (oclók) = O'clock
At (át) = A, at, in
Time(táym) = Time, time

THERE IS AND THERE ARE


This is a verb that you will need to learn well, as it is used a lot in
English. “There is” and “there are” is the combination of two words
and together they mean “hay” in Spanish, so when you see these two
words together you will know what it means. Be careful and don't
think that it is misspelled or that we translate it as "there it is or there
it is." You can also ask questions with these words, which we will
learn later. For the negation of “there is and there are” the word “NO”
is used after this verb.

There is (deR is) = There is (use it when speaking in the singular)


There are (deR aR) = There is (use it when speaking in the plural)

THE PAST TENSE “THERE WAS and THERE WERE”:

were”; the past tense is very simple and only requires a little time to
learn.

There was (déR was) = There was or There was (use it when

4. Review the Seventh Lesson without doing the self-assessment of


it. Read aloud to improve your pronunciation. Focus on the words,
sentences or phrases that are written in English.
Note: Congratulations on making it to this lesson. If you have
followed our instructions, it is because you have a

enormous desire to learn to speak English. Perhaps you have


noticed that in the lessons there are some translations that are not
given literally into Spanish, the reason is because we want you to
learn practical and authentic English. And if there are repeated
words, sentences or phrases, it is for a purpose.
NINTH LESSON

can't, you will always be right.”
Then change your mentality, and think that you are capable of
learning this language because although I do not know it personally,

More (móoR) Further

We can also use comparatives of inferiority and in this case we use

“the least”.

Less Less
Least (list) ................... He less

Important (important).. Important


Less important ............. Less important
The least important.... The least important

Beautiful (biuriful) ......... Beautiful

The least beautiful ....... the least beautiful
There are other ways to make comparisons with words that are short
instead of using “more and the most.” These short words usually have
the ending “er” and “est” added to the adjective itself.
Small (smol) ......................... Little, boy
Smaller ......................... Smaller
Smallest (smolest) ....... The smallest

Long ............................... Long

Note: Remember that it is better that you learn practical English and
not literal English, because it is of no use to translate well literally and
not be understood correctly. Once you learn how to make certain
sentences or phrases, start creating at least 10 more that fit your
lifestyle, so you can use them throughout the day.

THE USE OF “IF” AND “YES”


Yes Yes) ........... Yeah
IF (if) ................. If (giving the idea “in case” or the possibility of
something)

Read these examples aloud to get an idea of how the word “IF” is
used:

Yes, I am here at your home.


Yes, I'm here at your house.

If I go home you will finish this work.


If I go home you will finish this job.

Yes, I will go to your house if you want.

VERBS OF POSSIBILITY
C AN:
“Can” means “power” in the sense of having the capacity to do
something, it is also used to ask for permission.

Note: Surely you realized that when translating “you can have a glass
of milk”, it was not translated literally, because when translated as it
should be, “have” has a sense or meaning of “take”. The message we
want to convey is: You can have a glass of milk.

WOULD:

such as: verría, ¡ría, sending, mandría, would, etc., are formed in
