La regla · The rule
The nota de síntesis is an institution of the public service: several documents, one page, no opinion, decision-ready. It is set in the oposiciones — the competitive exams for public posts — and written every day in every ministry.
Y también · And also
Its discipline is brutal and worth borrowing. One page. Structure announced in the first three lines. Every claim traceable to a document. Nothing of yourself anywhere in it.
Ojo · Watch out
One page, no yo, no opinion, every claim traceable to a document. las oposiciones are competitive examinations for public posts, not the opposition; listo para decidir means the note gives the elements, never the decision.
resolver, presente — the table
yo resuelvo · tú resuelves · él/ella/usted resuelve · nosotros resolvemos · ustedes resuelven · ellos/ellas resuelven
Do it now — on paper
Say all 9 words aloud twice from the respelling, then once from the Spanish spelling alone — begin with una sola página.
Copy every word with its accents on paper; then cover the English column and write each meaning back from the Spanish.
Write out resolver, presente in full from memory, every person, and check each form against the table above.
This free course is the reading half. The writing half — write-in lessons, daily practice pages with built-in review, self-checks and a full answer key — is the companion workbook series, The Spanish Ladder: one workbook per module, fifteen in all, released band by band with the Basic band (Modules 1–5) first.
