Prctica (Practice)
El alfabeto (Alphabet)
In Spanish, el alfabetois also called el abecedario. When you pronounce thefirst four letters of the alphabet, you will see why. None of their letters aredifferent from English. However, there are some double letters that areconsidered to be separate letters of the alphabet.
Note: In Spanish dictionaries or directories, entries beginning with theletter are listed separately. Before 1994, entries for CH and LLwere also listed as separate letters. The Association of SpanishLanguage Academies voted to eliminate the separate listings.These letters are now listed under C and L. Other sources say thatthe RR is a sound and not a separate letter of the alphabet.
Also note that only three consonants can be doubled in a SpanishwordC , L , and R.
Listen as the teacher models thealphabet in Spanish. Look at the letters belowas each one is pronounced.
escuchen (listen)
A B C C H D E F G H I J K L L L M
N O P Q R R R S T U V W X Y Z
This time, listen and repeat the letters .
escuchen (listen) repitan (repeat)
The letters of the alphabet are always pronounced the same way. Only oneletter is silent, and that is the letter H . Once you know the sounds theletters make, it is easy to figure out how to pronounce a word.

Spelling Words in Spanish
Here is how the number dos would be spelled in Spanish: d, o, s. Whatabout words with accent marks? When spelling words in Spanish, accentmarks are considered to be part of the word. Therefore, note the following:
If a letter has an accent mark over it, you add the words con acentoafter the letter if you are spelling it out loud. For example, the worddlar would be spelled d , o con acento , l , a , r. The accent mark is usedover vowels to show that the syllable is stressed. Accent marks areconsidered to be part of spelling, and should not be omitted.
The tilde (~) mark over the n (as in seor) indicates the ny sound(like the English word, cany on).
