Learn Spanish: Dictionary and Verb Conjugation

Recently I posted about my Harper Collins French Dictionary and Bescherelle; these are the tools that have helped me learn French. Today, I have two books to recommend that have helped me learn Spanish.
The first is the HarperCollins Spanish Dictionary. This dictionary is among the finest Spanish language dictionaries and is used by students all over the globe. Over two thousand pages long, this dictionary is packed with specific definitions, idioms, and examples of the Spanish language. Furthermore, you won’t have to ever use an online translator again; this should comfort you if you’ve ever used one extensively! All in all, this book is a great deal and a must-have for any serious student of Spanish. Have a look at the pocket versions too as they are still valuable resources while in a Spanish-speaking country.

501 Spanish Verbs is a great resource for students regardless of their level of study. This book details 501 different Spanish verbs from A to Z; it provides their meaning and their full conjugations for each tense and mood. I use this book regularly when I am doing any work in Spanish, especially when I am construction lessons and articles for this website. It has proven to be a great resource for me and I think every student of Spanish should own this.

Langenscheidt's Pocket Bescherelle Spanish Verbs is not a book that I have personally used, however, it carries the word ‘Bescherelle’; the Bescherelle brand, as well as then Langenscheidt brand, is widely-known for its accuracy. This small book uses a formulaic approach to list full conjugations for over 12,000 different Spanish verbs! I have not personally used this book, however, I would definitely trust it due to the brands involved. If you are looking for something different from the 501 Spanish Verbs book, this would definitely be the way to go.
