How to use the SIELE B1 list

Start by scanning the sample words: ante, apenas, arroyo, beso, boda, cartel, chimenea, confiar. If most of them are familiar, move faster. If many slow you down, open this level in GoNative and select words for review.

You do not need to learn the whole list blindly. Mark known words, skip what is not useful and save the words that matter for the exam.

Turn vocabulary into practice

A word list is easy to forget if it stays passive. After selection, move the useful words into review and train them in short sessions.

GoNative helps you build a personal SIELE B1 list, add translations and examples, and bring words back on schedule until they become easier to recall.
