This book is available in English-only or Spanish-only versions (with pronunciation guide) and hard or soft cover: Premiobooks.
Spanish vowels have one sound each: a = ah e = eh i = ee o = oh u = oo. Every vowel should be pronounced (except for the u after a q [que is pronounced keh]). In Spanish, the letter j is pronounced as an English h (and the letter h is silent), ll sounds like a y (or a j in some countries), and ñ has an ny sound (año sounds like ah-nyo).
Spanish nouns are masculine or feminine and are usually preceded by an article: la = feminine the; el = masculine the; una = feminine a or one; un = masculine a or one. Articles (and –s/-es after nouns) reflect plural: las = plural feminine the; los = plural masculine the; unas = feminine some; unos = masculine some. In Spanish, the accent is generally on the first or second syllable of simple words. Words with four or more syllables often have the accent on the third syllable. Variations occur with conjugation. If there’s an accent mark—follow that!
