Step 1

The 5 Spanish Vowels

Spanish only has 5 vowel sounds (English has like 15!). And they never change. Once you learn these, you can pronounce almost any Spanish word. Tap each card to see example words.

Pro tip from Fer: Spanish vowels are short and crisp. Don't drag them out like in English. “No” is a quick “noh” — not “nooooh” 😄

Step 2

4 Mistakes Every Beginner Makes

These are the pronunciation traps that make you sound like a textbook. Avoid them and you'll sound way more natural from day one.

✗

Pronouncing "H"

✓H is always SILENT in Spanish

"hola" = "oh-lah" (not "ho-lah")

Think of it as a ghost letter — it's there but you never hear it! 👻

✗

English "R" sound

✓Spanish R is a quick tongue tap (like "butter" said fast)

"pero" = tongue taps the roof of your mouth

Say "butter" fast in English — that "tt" sound is close to a Spanish R!

✗

Saying vowels the English way

✓Spanish vowels NEVER change — "a" is always "ah"

"a" in "casa" and "banana" sounds the same

This is the #1 thing that makes you sound more natural instantly.

✗

Stressing the wrong syllable

✓Look for accent marks — they tell you where to stress

"música" = MU-si-ca, "café" = ca-FE

No accent mark? Stress the second-to-last syllable (most of the time).

Step 3

Practice These 6 Words 🗣️

Say each one out loud. Seriously — reading Spanish silently doesn't count! Use the pronunciation guide and try to sound it out.

Hola

Hello

🔊

OH-lah

💡 Remember: H is silent!

Gracias

Thank you

🔊

GRAH-see-ahs

💡 The "ci" sounds like "see"

Buenos días

Good morning

🔊

BWEH-nohs DEE-ahs

💡 Accent on the "í" in días

Por favor

Please

🔊

por fah-VOR

💡 Stress the last syllable

Mucho gusto

Nice to meet you

🔊

MOO-cho GOO-stoh

💡 U is always "oo"

Agua

Water

🔊

AH-gwah

💡 Both A's sound the same: "ah"

🎯 Try saying all 6 without looking at the pronunciation guide. You're already sounding more natural!
