Online Conjugator Spanish - The Verbarrator

The Spanish online conjugator is, undeniably, one of the most effective learning tools currently available that is capable of helping students learn Spanish quickly, in particular, the conjugation of Spanish verbs, which is so often the stumbling block for many of them.

For years linguists have been trying new methods and techniques that would aid in the learning of Spanish. Everything from image association and various other memorization techniques to subconscious study (listening to Spanish whilst sleeping!).

Some of these techniques were effective, whilst others were…well let’s just say, a little gimmicky! Many of the effective methods are still used today but they only really improved how Spanish was learnt and not the time taken to do so.

Also, the effective learning techniques were better suited for nouns, adjective and verb infinitives and not for learning the conjugation of verbs (I am referring to image association, by the way!).

Why an online conjugator, Spanish verb practice tool so effective?

Spanish verb conjugation is notoriously difficult to master and, because of this, it is one of the most time consuming areas of Spanish study.

The traditional method of learning Spanish verb conjugations has always been to use a verb conjugation book and recite, recite and recite some more until the necessary information had been completely memorized…hence why it took so long to learn conjugation.

However, the online conjugator has helped substantially and although the earliest offerings were basically online verb conjugation books, that did little, if anything at all, to improve the situation, the most recent additions have completely transformed how Spanish verbs are studied, specifically the ‘Verbarrator’.

Learning verb conjugation has always been tedious and time consuming, some have said it is like riding a bicycle with flat tyres up a hill, sure you’ll get there in the end but boy it’s hard work, and it is for this reason that so many people give up on learning Spanish beyond being able to order a coffee.

Now…imagine what it would be like if you actually started enjoying the study of verb conjugation and mastered them much quicker than you could have ever imagined!

This is what the current crop of online conjugators offer and why they are an invaluable Spanish verb practice and training tool for anyone serious about learning Spanish well and quickly.

How to Conjugate in Spanish

Learning how to conjugate in Spanish is without doubt the most difficult part of learning the Spanish language. Spanish has an extremely high number of irregular verbs, some more irregular than others, and as well as having to learn new conjugations for all of the common tenses there is also the subjunctive to learn, which is rarely used in English but extremely common in Spanish.

When considering all of the factors spelled out above, it is little wonder that many students give up all because they fail to master Spanish verb conjugation.

However, there is a new software program that has been a resounding success in helping struggling students get past their personal stumbling blocks and it does it quickly too!

The name of that program is Verbarrator and it not only provides excellent verb training but it is enjoyable to use and speeds up the learning process! More about the Verbarrator later…back to learning to conjugate in Spanish!

The simplest way to explain how to conjugate in Spanish is to show Spanish conjugation in it’s simplest form which is a regular verb in the present tense. If you are not aware already, you need to know that there are three different verb groups in Spanish, and those groups are comprised of verbs that end in ar, er and ir.

Here is the basic present tense conjugation for a verb from each of the regular verb groups.

• Trabajar – to work
• I work – trabajo
• You work – trabajas
• he/she works – trabaja
• we work – trabajamos
• you all work – trabajaís
• they work – trabajan

• Abrir – to open
• I open – abro
• You open – abres
• he/she open – abre
• we open – abrimos
• you all open – abrís
• they open – abren

• Aprender – to learn
• I learn – aprendo
• You learn – aprendes
• he/she learn – aprende
• we learn – aprendemos
• you all learn – aprendéis
• they learn – aprenden

About Spanish Verb Conjugation

It goes without saying that verb conjugation is probably the biggest obstacle faced by most people learning Spanish and is often the reason why so many of them give up any notion of ever speaking this wonderful language. Ever since languages were first taught, verb conjugation tables were the trusted and traditional, as well as the only, way to learn verbs this was both laborious and tedious and very often frustrating. However, once the internet became popular so did language learning software and programs that initially just transferred previously written information into digital information.

Things moved along very quickly and it wasn’t long before online Spanish verb conjugators became available. These conjugators offered little in the way of training and were basically little more than reference tools but they continued to develop until eventually a program was designed that would have a huge impact for those people who were struggling to cope learning verb conjugation, that program was the verbarrator.

The Verbarrator

The verbarrator in an excellent verb training tool and is probably the best new Spanish language product to come onto the market for some time. Using the verbarrator as part of a daily study routine will help a student master verb conjugation much sooner and therefore learn Spanish that much quicker.

The program took three years to develop and it is easy to understand why as it is a big download, containing over 34,770 mp3 audio files which cover 563 Spanish verbs in 20 tenses and provides user friendly training through a series of fully customized exercises and enjoyable drills. The program is available in both PC and Mac versions and retails for $57.

The program can be fully customized and adjusted to suit each user’s level of competence. Beginners can set the program to only use the 90 most common verbs to start with and increase this as their ability increases. As with all languages, a mastery of verbs is extremely important in order to communicate at a good level in Spanish and this is why Verbarrator is a particularly useful tool, so much so it has been receiving rave reviews since its release in May 2009.

One of the key elements of the Verbarrator program is its flexibility. The program allows you to set how and what you would ike to study, for example; if you wished to study the verb ser in the preterite tense just set up the parameters on the program interface , (which is very simple to do, by the way) and your training begins immediately. You have the option of listening to verbs in both English and Spanish or in complete immersion mode eliminating the use of English altogether. The versatilty of this program is definitely one of its best selling points.

My Spanish has certainly improved with the use of the Verbarrator as I have almost completely eradicated where I used to regularly use the incorrect tense or an incorrect ending, and very quickly too. Although, from a personal point of view, I initially found  the interface quite confusing the first time of opening but within 5 minutes was totally at ease with it…it would have probably been sooner if I’d read the user information file!

If you are thinking about learning Spanish or have been doing so for some time and already realize just how difficult Spanish verb conjugation is then this is a program I would definitely say is worth investing in.
