Lesson details
Vocabulary and transcripts for this lessons
Key learning points
- The sound-symbol correspondence [qui] is like a hard ‘c’ followed by [i], as in the word ‘equipo’.
- Adding -s to nouns ending in -o or -a makes them plural.
- Numbers 1-12 go before nouns to indicate how many there are; numbers don’t change their spelling for gender.
- The verb tener can be used with numbers and nouns to say how many I and others have.
Keywords
[qui] - pronounced like a hard 'c' followed by [i]
Plural noun - a word that refers to more than one person, place or thing
Tengo - part of the verb 'tener' that means 'I have'
Tiene - part of the verb 'tener' that means she, he, it has
Common misconception
The sound [qui] is pronounced the same in Spanish and English.
[qui] is pronounced differently in Spanish and English. [qui] is pronounced like a hard 'c' followed by [i] or like the word 'key' in English.
