Hello Polyglots 😎
 
 
 
In today's lesson, you will learn how to write the different letters of the Spanish alphabet, how to pronounce these letters whether it is through the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA), or through a video with the pronunciation of the letters by a native speaker.
 
 
In order to have a good pronunciation you need to understand that Spanish sounds are similar to English sounds but they are actually different.
 
 
So we need to understand how to put the mouth in every sound of the Spanish language. To do that try to listen to native speakers and look at their mouth position.
 
 
If you practice those particular sounds that only exist in Spanish you will sound more like a native.
 
 
You will also find at the end of this lesson a virtual keyboard to be able to type each special character of this language.
 
 
Have a good learning!
