Learn Spanish Words and Phrases

People decide to learn Spanish for a variety of reasons. Many find themselves encountering the language in their daily lives. After all, Spanish is heard in popular music, movies, and TV shows. Other people want to learn Spanish based on their plans to work, volunteer, or vacation in any of the 20 countries where Spanish is the official language. Regardless of your reason for learning Spanish, you can get off to a great start by first learning how to pronounce some very basic words and phrases. It is a critical step to understand and be understood by any of the 437 million people around the world who speak Spanish.

New Spanish learners often get sidetracked trying to memorise lengthy lists of Spanish vocabulary words and phrases. Then they become frustrated because they have little-to-no ability to participate in everyday Spanish conversation. That’s why it’s really important that new Spanish language learners focus on understanding and pronouncing basic words and phrases most commonly used in real-world Spanish. This smart approach to learning Spanish will help you become a confident and comfortable Spanish speaker.

Of note, Spanish does have some pronunciation distinctions that can make it a challenge for language learners. As one example, the letter r is pronounced differently and takes some practise for most new learners. This distinct sound is formed by tapping the tip of the tongue on the roof of the mouth, about a third of the way back in the mouth. Some Spanish language experts suggest new learners practise making the “tt” sound, as it sounds in the English word butter.

Honing your pronunciation skills requires immediate feedback on your efforts. Rosetta Stone helps you get the pronunciation right in a snap with our TruAccent™ speech-recognition engine. Our patented technology compares your voice to native and non-native speakers in real-time—so you get immediate feedback for the most accurate pronunciation. It’s also adjustable, which allows you to tweak your accent as needed. TruAccent is a powerful tool for helping you learn and speak the Spanish language.

After you have developed the ability to understand basic Spanish words and short phrases, you can move onto the longer phrases used in everyday conversation. Rosetta Stone’s short, 10-minute language lessons are designed to lead you along this natural path to learning. You’ll first focus on learning basic words and phrases, then you’ll move onto learning longer Spanish phrases, and then towards learning to speak Spanish with confidence.
