【Spanish Lesson #2】More Examples
Last time, I posted about Survival Expressions that I’ve learned during my first week attending an online class. In this post, I will write some examples from the first week's lessons.
Quisiera comer algo - I’d like something to eat.
¿Cuรกnto es? - How much is it?
¿Puede ayudarme, por favor? - Can you help me please?
Me he perdido - I’m lost.
The alphabets:
During the online lessons, we only
listen to how to read the letters of the alphabet. I had to repeat the
voice-over because I cannot understand how it was read and had to use other
resources to know how the letters are pronounced properly. There are also
questions after the alphabet lessons and we need to listen to the person
reading it and write the correct letters. Anyway, I will write here how each
letter is pronounced.

During the listening of letters, I thought G is read as ‘The’. I heard there is TH is reading G but when I used other resources, G is read ‘ge’. H in Spanish is read silently. That’s why H is read as ‘ache’ but spelled as ‘Hache’. As in the previous lessons, B and V have the same pronunciation. Both are read as ‘B’. That’s why, ‘uve’ is pronounce as ‘ube’. This is only how I observe during my online class and I am still a beginner, so I may be wrong in how the letters are read. Please correct me. Gracias.

So that’s it for my first week of
learning the Spanish language. I already finish my seven weeks lesson, but I still
need to review everything because it is quite hard as most of the words are written
in Spanish.
I will update as soon as possible
after I review my lessons.
See you soon!
