• A friend of mine from Mexico was telling me how he learned the alphabet when he was a kid, and as we know

Spanish and English alphabets have pretty much the same letters, but there's a BIG difference in how letters are used in each language.

• In English, children are taught to read by using phonics but at the same time, they must learn what the word is, so that they retain which phonetic rule to apply the next time they see that word.

• My friend told me that they learn the alphabet by ‘conjugating each letter’

I have NEVER heard this before, so he explained

• Each consonant is ‘conjugated’ by using each of the vowels.

So if the teacher says, please conjugate ‘M’ the student would respond: ma, me, mi, mo, mu

For ‘R’: ra, re, ri, ro, ru and so on

• He then said, once children have learned the sounds proficiently, then they know how to read anything. Of course, knowing what it is they’re reading is a different story.

Funny, but several of my Hispanic friends described learning as kids using the same process. :-) - chaparrito, Jan 31, 2010

It takes a moment to load but it´s quite good.

In the future when you ask a question, please capitalize and punctuate correctly. There are Spanish speaking people here to learn English, too, so your accurate English will help them. If English is not your native language, I apologize. Just do the best you can.

Answer 4

As chaparrito(sp?) said previously, there are some links around this website. I personally, learned the alphabet in elementary school. We learned with this exact song: http://www.teachertube.com/viewVideo.php?video_id=123598&title=Spanish_Alphabet_Marching_Song

Answer 5

Just remember that pronunciation of the individual letters (such as saying your A - B -C's) can be quite different than their pronunciation within words. Which are you referring to?

Answer 6

It's almost exactly the same as the english one, but you pronounce the letters just with an accent.
