Spanish Grammar: Practice

Available: iOS

This resource focuses on helping you improve your skills for one of the trickiest and most prolific types of grammar rules out there: verb conjugations.

Practice activities have you identify tenses and build sentences. The app tracks your progress, so you can find out which tenses you need to work on and which you’ve already nailed down by looking at your statistics and seeing how you’ve done so far.

The full app features practice for eight verb tenses, while the free app features three of the most common tenses, futuro imperfecto (future imperfect), presente (present) and pretérito simple (simple preterite). The iOS app also features explanations of the tenses.

FluentU

Available: iOS | Android

FluentU isn’t exclusively a grammar app, but it can give you a strong dose of grammar along with vocabulary and listening practice.

That’s because FluentU’s language learning platform provides authentic content—like movie clips and music videos—that allows you to see real grammar rules in action.

FluentU captions videos and provides detailed annotations, giving you access to any word’s definition, example sentences and an associated image from within the video player. F

or instance, if a word is a verb, you’ll also see which specific conjugation it is. This makes it easy to see at a glance what tense is being used and helps you better understand how sentences are put together.

You can even see other videos where the word is used for additional context.

And, each video clip on FluentU comes with an interactive quiz, flashcards and vocabulary lists to help you keep all this information in your long-term memory.

Spanish Verb Conjugator

Available: iOS | Android

If you want an easy reference tool with access to tons of different verbs, Spanish Verb Conjugator is second to none.

This app features 20 tenses for over 700 verbs. That’s Spanish learning gold!

Spanish Verb Conjugator also has some other great features. For instance, you can use the search to look up verbs quickly and easily. Find a verb you want to study more? You can export it, which will allow you to copy a verb, email the verb or print a verb.

Spanish Verb Conjugator is free with ads. There’s also pro version available, which removes the ads and includes audio by native Spanish speakers.

Spanish Grammar Tenses

Available: Android

Android users, wish you had a similar app to the one above? You’re in luck! In this resource, you’ll find explanations of all the grammar tenses, their uses and conjugations—all presented in Spanish.

This app covers everything from reflexive verbs to the indicative and everything in between.

As with the previous app on our list, this one’s best for intermediate to advanced learners as beginners may not understand the Spanish-only explanations of each grammar concept.

If the all-caps writing is difficult for you to read, there are a number of apps with fewer ratings that offer a similar (if not the same) content, like Gramática Del Español.

Spanish Grammar Test

Available: Android

Maybe answering a handful of questions seems a little too easy. Maybe you worry you’ll run out of material to help you learn Spanish. Maybe you have a limitless appetite for great learning material. If any of these apply to you, you need to check out Spanish Grammar Test.

Rather than having a few dozen questions of even a few hundred questions, Spanish Grammar Test features thousands of questions (over 50,000, in fact). That should be enough to keep any learner on his or her toes!

You can take thematic vocabulary tests, but let’s get to the good stuff: grammar. There are tests associated with different parts of speech like nouns, pronouns, etc., that you can use to target grammar issues you’re struggling with.

There are also tests on verbs, sentences and common grammar structures for your learning pleasure.

Why Use a Spanish Grammar App?

If you’re a serious Spanish student, you probably already have a few Spanish learning apps on your phone. What sets grammar apps apart from the apps you’re already using?

For one thing, you can use Spanish grammar apps to learn key grammar rules. Following grammar rules is important for clear communication—otherwise, people might not understand what you’re saying.

Since these apps often offer clear explanations of these rules, a good app can be a great way to learn this crucial information.

Many apps also allow you to practice what you’ve learned. Like all the best Spanish apps, most grammar apps are interactive, allowing you to test out the grammar rules you’ve just learned, which can help reinforce them.

Grammar-specific apps also provide a fun, flexible learning option. They can be as fun as Spanish apps for kids and as flexible as a troupe of acrobats!

These resources are usually designed to be engaging, making them more fun than studying grammar from a textbook. They’re flexible since you can quickly and easily switch between app features (or just flip between the app and Snapchat, if you’re so inclined).

Finally, Spanish grammar apps are easy, convenient reference tools. Like Spanish dictionary apps and Spanish translation apps, there’s a ton of information packed into these apps and you can use them to look up tricky grammar rules or sometimes even a specific conjugation you’re struggling with.

There’s no need to treat “grammar” like a dirty four-letter word. With these five Spanish grammar apps, grammar might seem like the most beautiful word you’ve ever heard.
