However, it is this site’s goal to be able to give you enough Spanish vocabulary words to help you to be able to communicate quite nicely in Spanish. If you move on in your Spanish studies, then your vocabulary will continue to increase. However, if you choose to stop your studies after taking the Spanish Difficult Review quizzes, or even if you stopped after the Spanish Medium Review quizzes, you will have a good, solid foundation of vocabulary words to be able to communicate with native Spanish speakers.
