Question

If I'm saying I can spell Utah in Spanish what do I conjugate "spell" to??? Please help!

Answer 1

Hi, Paza. The dictionary says the verb is "deletrear." Does that help?

Answer 2

I spell Utah would be :Deletreo (la palabra) Utah I can spell Utah should be: Puedo deletrear (la palabra) Utah

Answer 3

ortigraficar

In English we use the verb to spell for both writing and pronouncing the letters.

Spanish uses Escribir to mean spelling rather than ortigraficar in many cases. They also use a phrase involving letras that I can't recall for spelling.

Ah, Marianne found it.
