Essential Question:
What is the major difference between the

3. Some notes on the Spanish alphabet…
• In English, sometimes vowels take on different
pronunciations
• Pronounce the following words:
– naked, baked
– water, later
– roaring, pouring
• In Spanish, 99.99999999% of the time, vowels keep
the same pronunciation, making it very easy to
pronounce the word if you know how each letter is
pronounced
