Description

If you're trying to lean Spanish verb conjugations, Verbos is the app for you!

Each Spanish verb has 89 forms; you don't have to learn all of them, but you do have to learn many and you must be able to easily use at least the present tense and a few others.

Many students of Spanish find that the way to learn verb conjugations is to drill themselves, over and over and over. Verbos is the tool to do just that.

Using Verbos is simple: touch the screen and a new drill appears - an infinitive selected randomly, a tense selected randomly and a person/number ("yo", "tu", "el", "ella", etc.) selected randomly. You say - out loud or in your mind - what you think the answer is and touch the screen again. The correct answer appears. If you want, you can also hear the correct answer at the same time.

You can set Verbos to drill you on a subset of the 500+ verbs in the app. How can you choose?

- Select one infinitive to drill yourself;

- Create a list of verbs to drill (Verbos comes with a "Top 20 Verbs" verb list);

- Select what tense or tenses to drill. Want to work on just present tense: select that . Want to work on present and future and preterite? Select those and all drills presented will be only one of those three tenses;

- Want to drill on irregular verbs only? Select that.

- Want to drill only "-ar" verbs? Select that.
- Want to drill only on first person singular verb forms? Select that.

- Want to drill on regular "-ar" verbs only, present and preterite tenses only, first person singular and plural only? Select those settings and all drills will be "ar" verbs in present or preterite tense, first person singular or plural. You can customize the drills to a fine level, and then apply those settings to a verb list you've created. You'll drill yourself on exactly what you need to drill yourself on.

- You can test yourself. See your improvement! Verbos has three types of tests: timed, number of verbs, and a combination of both. you can selected how long you want the test or how many verbs you want the test to quiz you on. When the test is done, you'll see your score. You can save the test results, and see a history of all saved tests - clear proof that you're learning!

-You create and save any number of verb lists. This allows you to study a small set of verbs as a unit. When you use a verb list, only the verbs from that list will be used for quizzing.

- You can see a verb's complete conjugation from the main drill screen.

- You can see the full conjugation of any verb in the app by selecting that verb in the Settings screen.
-
- You can see a sample conjugation, in English, showing how each tense is used.

Your Verbtrainer includes a small Help file. If you'd like to see a more complete "How-To" document, go to www.verbtrainers.com and click on the User Manual link in the left column.

Good app

It’s a good app that I find useful. It could easily be a great app if they added speech to it. Other apps use Siri to speak the Spanish words so it can’t be that hard to add. Even though this has features I really like I find myself using other apps a lot more often because they incorporate speech into them. Adding speech would make this easily a 5 star app.

Simple app that works as advertised

I love this app because practicing the conjugation is essential for fluency, yet can be pretty boring. This app allows you to do it when you have downtime (e.g. waiting in a line). You can save verbs that give you more problems in a list for later review. The customer service is excellent as well. I got an immediate response regarding a conjugation question about a particular verb.

Portuguese next?

Great app! I currently use the Italian and Spanish versions to practice - hope they come out with Portuguese next!

Easily my favorite verb app.

This is easily my favorite verb app. You can quiz yourself by tenses, or - most importantly - make your own lists! My only wish is that they make a version for the iPad :)

Worth FIVE times the price!

I can't say enough good about this wonderful app! It is very flexible and useful... and support is fantastic. I found a verb that was not included and e-mailed support. It was instantly added and the developer e-mailed me with instructions to update the verb list. If you are learning Spanish and want to drill yourself on a specific verb list, specific tenses, specific persons, regular or irregular verbs, -ar, -er, -ir verbs, the combinations are endless. It is MORE than worth the price. I quiz myself all the time and am LEARNING and RETAINING now! Buy this app!!! You won't be sorry.

Poor user interface

This app has potential however the user interface is NOT user friendly at all and it's very hard to navigate. Unless they update don't buy. There are better apps out there for just as much money.

A wonderful app

This app has everything I need to help me learn my Spanish verbs. The developer also gives great support. I couldn't figure out how to make a personal verb list to drill on and he wrote me a set of directions immediately even though he was on vacation in Spain. You can't go wrong by buying this app.

Has Problems

This is a great app for learning conjugations when it works. Keep having problems with it crashing and I lose all saved verb list when that happens.

Crashed!

I had three sessions before it stopped working. I reported the problem. A waste.

Good, on the way to Great

I've used this app for several months. No crashes. I use it primarily on my iPad. I like it because I can test my progress in learning the various tenses. I've made some suggestions to the originator of the program for some changes to an iPad only version that have been favorably received. When those are done this will be a fantastic program to help with the tiresome chore of memorizing all those pesky conjugations. But even now I start a timer on my iPhone for several minutes and let the Verbos program pick random verbs in the various tenses I'm trying to learn. I then write down the "correct" answer and see how many I can get correct in my 5 minutes. Then I can easily calculate how many I answered and the percentage of correct answers to make it a little game of am I getting any better at this. It is also easy to use the iPhone version in those situation where you have a few minutes to practice. Quiet time at night, a Dr.'s office, watching the wife in a clothing store, it is easy to refresh one's memory in just a few minutes. And after awhile one begins to see progress in the daunting task of memorizing the various tenses, the irregulars, etc. In the beginning you might get 50% or 60% correct and over time work your way up to higher percentages. There are a couple of online free programs that do this, but they work with a limited number of verbs, only allow one tense at a time, and one has to be connected to the internet of course. For only $3 you get a portable program that allows one to do this anywhere. If you want to improve your proficiency at conjugating verbs, then this is a program you should have on your iPhone or iPad.
