Phonetic Notation Key
As an adult, you have a strong association between speech sound and speech script. If you learned Spanish by reading and writing, it will also interfere with your hearing and pronunciation of Spanish sounds.
That's why we use a special writing system designed to cut the chances of you mispronouncing Spanish sounds. Below you will find a key for many of the letters and symbols you will find in this program.
