Pronouncing this Spanish joke

[espanoethan]

Hello, I have found a spanish joke and was wondering if anybody could help my pronounce it as it is rather tricky. The joke is:
Hay tres clases de personas:

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.
