Listen "Vocales -- Pronouncing Spanish Vowels"
Episode Synopsis
This screencast explains how the vowels of Spanish are pronounced.
Like the English alphabet, the Spanish alphabet -- el abecedario español -- has 5 vowels and more than 20 consonants.
Vowels are crucial to correct pronunciation. They are the letters that can be voiced or sung. Consonants are the letters that accompany the vowels, as the name “consonant” implies. Vowels are the roadway of speech; consonants are the curb. Vowels are the electricity and consonants, the switches.
