Answer 1

Incredibly easy in Spanish! Unlike English, where you always have to guess, Spanish has consistent rules for pronunciation.

There are rules for which syllable gets the emphasis and a warning sign when there is an exception! link text

In English we call them accent marks, in Spanish they use the words tilde and accento. Either word, it shows when to stress a syllable in a word that doesn't follow the usual rules.

How to pronounce each of the letters isn't as difficult as some lessons make it seem, link text and you can find any number of easy, colorful videos to follow along with on Youtube. link text

I know that this isn't probably what you are really asking, but if you wanted to know how to pronounce the letters see this video:

The Spanish alphabet

The pronunciation of the letters in words is effected somewhat by region so when learning how a letter is pronounced also pay attention to where the letter is pronounced that way.

Hey Quentin, that alphabet song is quite catchy. I can just picture you snapping your fingers as you sing along. :) - Nicole-B, Aug 26, 2010
