Hello, espanoethan.
Please post your own proposal for translation without the help of an online translator and we will help you with what you don't understand. Would you also please tell what you find hard to pronounce so we can explain?

If you're studying Spanish, and this is a homework, we cannot do it for you, but we can offer help when you post your own efforts.
As for pronunciation: Spanish is normally pronounced just the way it's written. It seems that native English speakers find very hard to pronounce the vowel sounds, so I hope you will find this guide useful: "a" is pronounced like the a in "father". "e" is pronounced close to the e in "met" or the ai in "fair". "i" is pronounced like the ee in "see". "o" is pronounced like the o in "nor". "u" is pronounced like the the oo in "moon". The "h" is never pronounced, so "hay" is pronounced like the pronoun "I" in English. In "que" the q sounds like "k" and the u is not pronounced, so "que" is pronounced like "che" in "chemistry".

Spanish pronunciation is extremely regular. If a particular combination of sounds in hard for you, then you need to practice until it becomes easier. Last edited by Rusty; August 21, 2015 at 05:29 AM. Reason: removed translation |
