Bilingual Day: Learning Spanish Online

Have you ever wondered how to say something in another language but didn’t know where to turn? Do your children have friends whose first language isn’t English? Are they picking up words in a second language? Do you want to learn a second language too?

SpanishDict is a site I’ve used for several years. They will translate single words or whole sentences. What I like about it is they give you several different ways to say what you are trying to say.

For example: I typed in “Here comes the sun.” They came back with their translation as “Aqui viene el sol.” They then gave me a machine translation (Aqui venga el sol.) and Yahoo! Babel Fish translation (Aqui viene el sol.)
Why the different ways to say the same thing? Because different countries same things slightly differently from each other. Similar to the different ways we say things in different parts of the US. (soda or pop or soda pop)

Another thing this site offers is a link at the top of the page, Learn a new Spanish word each day. This is an easy way to learn words little by little.

Still another great part of this site is the Flashcard page. These are fun. Pop over there and see how you do.

There are so many things on this site, you could use it as your online school to learn Spanish. Other links here are:
Reference
Conjugation

So, if Spanish is a language you want to learn, register, set up your own page and start learning.

Have fun!
