About these learning materials
YangJoe compiles these notes while learning Spanish. They support beginner self-study with vocabulary, parallel translations, short reading passages and interactive practice. They are personal study notes, not an official exam syllabus or a certification course.
The reading pages and interactive lessons use the same local source materials. Translations and pronunciation notes are learning aids; usage and pronunciation can vary by region. Two reading passages are in French and are labelled accordingly.
How do I use the site?
Start with the alphabet and numbers, then explore everyday vocabulary and short passages. Open the interactive lesson for audio playback, word explanations and available quizzes. Reading pages work without JavaScript; interactive learning needs JavaScript and audio support from your browser.
