Hay otras palabras ingleses y alfabético-penta(o hexa)vocálicas. Por ejemplo abste........ ) dos ejemplos.

You have more vocals than we do. We only have five vocals: pentavocálica (penta: five -pentagrama-; pan: all - panteísmo, some examples)

I don't get you about your hexavocalical (?) words.

The letter "Y" is often called a semi-vowel because it sometimes sounds exactly like an "I" This is why I have included it. Many English words end in
IOUslY. All we now need is a front end with ...... A...E.....

The two other words I have suggested both mean the same thing. They concern drink or the lack of it.

I said "vocal" instead "vowel". Sorry, it was late in the night:o :duh:

I don't remember well, but I think you have about twenty phonetic sounds for vowels, while we have just five.

Los vocales epañoles son muy regulares. Lo entiendo sus problemas con los vocales ingleses. The vowel sounds are usually not as pure as the Spanish ones.
They can be long or short fAther or Fat
They can depend on other letters in the word.
The "magic" silent letter E can make pIn into pIne by lengthening the I.
Each vowel is pronounced differently in different English speaking countries and each country has different regional variations. We tend to turn them into strange diphthongs, meaning that the sound varies as it is being spoken.
In Spanish two adjacent vowels are pronounced separately, but in English side from one to another, not necessarily by the shortest routes. English spelling is very irregular. There are many rules but they all have exceptions. Even the USA and the UK have some different spelling rules!! I'm glad I know it already.

Yes, you're lucky :)

Wouldn't it be: 'I already know it'?

Well, you know, that's the sort of thing we say. It doesn't mean very much, we just use "you know" as a sort of filler to pad out a sentence.

The most difficult thing for me (and many English speakers) is your verbs (regular and irregular) and the many tenses.

¡Confiturera, frene la euforia! Un arquitecto escuálido llamado Aurelio (o Eulalio, no estoy seguro) dice que lo más auténtico es tener un abuelito que lleve un traje reticulado y siga el arquetipo de aquel viejo reumático, desahuciado y repudiado, que consiguiera en su tiempo ser esquilado por un comunicante que cometió adulterio con una encubridora cerca del estanquillo (sin usar estimulador).
Señora escritora: si el peliagudo enunciado de la ecuación la deja irresoluta, olvide su menstruación y piense de modo jerárquico. No se atragante con esta perturbación, que no va con su milonguera y meticulosa educación, y repita conmigo, como diría Cantinflas: ¡Lo que es la falta de ignorancia!

Bueno, hay muchas palabras con 5 vocales, pero ninguna tiene los 5 vocales en la secuenzia alfabetica. He descubierto dos palabras mas en inglés.

Abstemious y Abstentious (abstemio)

aceituna tiene dos As. Aceito vale.

In English, the "ious" ending sure helps a lot. :)
