Pronunciation Questions
Is "gue" pronounced the same as "que" (as far as the "u" being silent)? Also, today I saw the word "desague" and it had the two horizontal dots over the "u". How does that affect the pronunciation of any letter or syllable?
Also, the audio on a website, when pronouncing words that had the "ie" diphong such as "fiesta", sounded as if there was an accent on the "e". Since there is no visual accent on this word, and many others like it, wouldn't this word sound like the typical two syllable word that has no accent. In other words, the "e" wouldn't be stressed any more than anything else. Gracias
