  3. Sílabas cont… • However, you do not separate most combinations of a consonant followed by an “L” or “R”. • Do-ble • Re-fres-cos • In-gre-dien-tes • Vi-na-gre

  4. Strong Vowels • The strong vowels in Spanish are “A”, “E”, and “O”. When two strong vowels appear together, each is pronounced individually forming two syllables. • Pa-e-lla • Tra-e-mos • Fe-o • To-a-lla • Hé-ro-e

  5. Weak vowels or Sticky vowels • The vowels “I” and “U” are weak vowels or sometimes called “sticky vowels”. When there is a two vowel combination and one of the letters is a sticky vowel, then the two vowels stick together and form one syllable sound.

  6. Sticky Vowels “I” • ai or ia - farmacia • ei or ie - seis • oi or io - violín • ui or iu THESE ARE CALLED DIPTHONGS

  7. Sticky Vowels “U” • au or ua –auto agua • eu or ue –eugenia, que • iu or ui- • ou or uo • THESE ARE ALSO CALLED DIPTHONGS

  8. Accents The pronunciation of a word in Spanish is determined by the last letter of the word

  9. Regla #1 • If a word ends in a vowel, the letter “s” or the letter “n”, then the strong syllable is on the 2nd to the last syllable. • La piscina • El centro • Estudioso • gracioso

  10. Regla #2 • If a word ends in any other consonant (besides s and n) then the stressed syllable is the last syllable. • Comunidad • Profesor • Papel • reloj • festival

  11. When do you have to write the accent? When the pronunciation of the word is contrary to rule #1 or rule #2, you have to write in the accent mark. Rule #1 Rule #2 Plátano lápiz Patín fútbol Cómodo césped
