3. You stre.zz wherever you see the accent marks e.g. Qué (What) - in this case we put much emphasis on the last letter é.

4. Letter J is silent. Remember how we write Hahaha, when we want to show we are laughing. In Spanish, we write jajajaja.

So whenever you see a word with letter j, skip the J part and pronounce the rest of the letters e.g. Hijo (Son) pronounced Ey-ho (the ho is forceful like you want to slightly get a phlegm out your throat, another example is Trabajo(Work/job) - you pronounce the last syllable the same way you pronounce hijo.

In some cases you pronounce the j letter as y
e.g. ojos (eyes) pronounced as you (oh-yos).

5. The letter v is pronounced as b (sometimes it's sounds like a mix of both).
Vivo en Francia - I live in France
Quiero beber una cerveza - I want to drink a beer

Pronunciation Tips

1. All the letters in a word are pronounced. Some may sound silent when spoken by natives.

2. Span.ish words are strezzed on the last syllables if they end on consonants other than n or s e.g. acTOR, ciuDAD(city), cociNAR (to cook), juGAR (to play games).

3. Span.ish words are strezzed on the second to the last syllable if they end with - n, s or a vowel. E.g. camaREro (waiter), QUEso (cheese), GUApa (gorgeous), BEllo (cute).
