How do you say"Hay" in Spanish?
If the H is silent, how do you say hay ? Is it like A or I? or do you say the h sound?

like the english 'eye'
Hi Sanlee: it pronounces like /ai/
(you are right the "h" is silent)
The "h" is silent. It's pronounced like you're saying the letter "i" in English.
It's supossed that /h/ is silent but people use to give them certain sound in certain words:
- hiede > jiede
- hediondo > jediondo
- huarache > guarache
- huevo > güevo
This usually happens in Mexico.
