20.6 PRONUNCIACIÓN Y ORTOGRAFÍA / PRONUNCIATION AND SPELLING

EL RITMO EN ESPAÑOL

In Spanish, syllables are pronounced for more or less the same amount of time, whether they are accented or unaccented.

	Recuerda: pronuncia bien todas las vocales, con o sin acento.

Pronounce all the vowels clearly, whether they are accented or not.

• compañeras ~ compañeros
• lo supongo ~ los pongo

The vowels e and o are always pronounced smoothly, and never as dipthongs:

• no [‘no] NO: [noʊ]
• sé [‘se] NO: [‘seɪ]

	Escucha y repite las palabras. Pronuncia bien todas las vocales con acento (en negrita) y sin él.
