Practice Your Letters And Learn The Spanish Language Free

By Juan Lopez

As attractive and effortless as Spanish sounds, there is always a certain amount of demanding work involved in learning any new language. The rules might seem difficult at first, but don't forget that the English language is often cited as one of the most complicated to learn, thanks to each rule's numerous exceptions.

Spanish is no different, but when you consider how many exceptions to the rule there are in English, the Spanish language and its emphasis on phonetics is actually fairly simple.

The Sound Of Spanish Vowels

All of Spanish's vowels are associated with strong sounds that will help each word jump off the tongue, like from a diving board. The letter "A" is pronounced like an "uh," an "e" sounds like "ay," the letter "i" becomes an "eee" sound and finally a "u" results in an "ooh" noise. The only vowel that retains the same sound from English to Spanish is the "o," which keeps the "oh" pronunciation.

By examining a short sentence in Spanish, you can see more clearly how to use this information. Our sample here will be "I want to buy new pants."

Me gusta comer el pollo frito.

"Me gusta" are the first two words, which are pronounced "May Goose-toe" and it means "I like." The following word, "comer," is spoken as "koh-mare" and it means "to eat." Finally, "el queso" means "the cheese" and it is pronounced "el kay-soh."

Spanish Consonants And How They Sound

Consonants in Spanish are understated for the most part. Even so, many rules apply to the consonants that can make subtle changes to not only meaning but the very sound of a word. In addition, there are a couple new letters to play with in Spanish. The first new letter is "ch," which is voiced just as it would be in English.

When the letter "c" makes an appearance by itself, it adopts an "s" sound if in front of either an "i" or an "e," as in the word "cero," or "zero" in English. The "g" letter makes a sound like "ch" if used in front of an "e" or "i" but elsewhere, it will be used like the "g" in "go."

There are additional hiccups as well. The letter "z" will make a "th" sound. The letter "h" is always silent. There's a second new letter as well, the "ll," which is pretty common in Spanish and makes a hard "y" sound like in "you." That sound is used in the word "llamar" and gives the word the following pronunciation: "ya-MAR."

Then there's the little tilde that appears in many Spanish words, such as "el nio." This produces a similar sound to the "ll," and as a result "el nio" is spoken "Ehl neen-yo."

Even so, the ground we've covered in this article certainly isn't everything, but it's a good start for those who want to learn Spanish free. There are a couple more sounds which can come in handy.

There are still more sounds if one cares to look, including "qu," which becomes a hard "k" sound. "R" letters are always rolled, particularly when they crop up at the beginning of a word. The letter "y" is pronounced just like its English equivalent unless it's used by itself or at the end of a word in which case it sounds like "eee. - 30312

Traditional Mexican Food is Fascinating

By Ken Kudra

Food has enjoyed a long and varied history in Mexico. This diverse history is rich in influences that are now enjoyed all over in many countries. True Mexican cuisine is a fabulous blending of fresh foods that are lovingly made from scratch. It is delicious and finds new followers everywhere.

Mexican cuisine is a blending of Aztec, Spanish, and Mayan influences with a little French thrown in. It has a reputation for spicy foods, but not all of their dishes are known for their heat. Recipes will depend on what part of Mexico it comes from. Ingredients and tastes change.

Cortez arrived in Mexico from Spain in 1521. He and his group discovered many new foods in the New World that they had never tasted before such as squash, vanilla, peanuts, avocados, chocolate, tomatoes, corn, beans, and coconuts. They shared what they had brought from Europe. The beef, cheese, lamb, pork, garlic, wine, milk, vinegar, and citrus fruits were quickly assimilated into Mexican cuisine and have long since become a major part of their diet.

Every cuisine is based on a few key ingredients. Mexican cuisine is based on beans, corn, and squash. Each area of Mexico then added their specialties. The Yucatan, for example, added fresh seafood and fruit. Northern Mexico became known for their grilled meats. Oaxaca and its surroundings contributed many different types of corn and chili peppers. They make at least seven different kinds of mole sauce in this region.

Around Veracruz, most recipes are based on fish. Tamales, tacos and everything else is made with the fresh fish that is available in this region. Other common ingredients that are used include olives, tomatoes, and chilies. What you eat in Mexican restaurants does not closely resemble true Mexican food.

The Mexican food we eat in the United States tends to be more Tex-Mex than Mexican. In Mexico, rice and beans would rarely be served together in the same meal, let alone the same course. Here, we get both on the same plate at most Mexican restaurants. Mexicans hardly ever make salads, either. This is the influence of the United States that has added these dishes.

There are many traditional Mexican foods to be found at the grocery store, you just need to know where to look. Authentic Mexican cuisine is a delicious way to feed your family. Find some traditional recipes and try them out. You will really enjoy the fresh flavors.

Sitting down to a Mexican meal does not necessarily mean tacos and enchiladas, but this certainly is a wonderful way to enjoy it. The real cuisine of Mexico is rich and full of flavor. Enjoy some at your own table and see all it has to offer. You will be very surprised. - 30312

Items You Will Probably Want To Buy For Mexican Recipes

By Beverley Drake

In order to cook authentic Mexican foods you will need some special tools. While it is possible to do Mexican cooking without these tools, true Mexican flavor depends on some of these tools that allow the food to develop the traditional flavors.

One such tool is the Cazuelas. This is a small bowl shaped dish that is about five to seven inches deep that is used for cooking sauces. Clay is very even heating and so there are no burnt spots in the sauces that you make in this dish. Mole is one sauce that is often cooked in this dish. The dish sometimes has some handles on either side and can be brightly painted on the outside and glazed on the inside.

Olla or Barro are Mexicaan pots. These large clay pots are used to simmer beans, soups or stews. They offer very even heating and can be used all day long over direct flames. Clay pots are fragile and quick changes in temperature should be avoided to keep from breaking the pot.

A Comal griddle is a large griddle that is made of cast iron, aluminum or clay. It is usually round and can be used for warming tortillas or roasting chiles or other vegetables. They come in a variety of sizes from that of a large plate up to two feet across.

A Metate y Mano is a manual grinder which is carved from lava rock or stone. It looks much like a large mortar and pestle. It is used in Mexico for grinding corn to make tortillas. Water is then added to the ground corn to make the paste to make the tortillas.

The Molcajete y Tejolote is a true Mexican mortar and pestle. It can be made of stone, clay or even wood. It is sold with a wood cylinder that is rounded on each end to use to crush spices or chilis to prepare them for cooking.

The Molinillo is a wooden whisk that is used to make foam on top of a cup containing hot chocolate. The Molinillo is spun between your hands in order to form the foam.

The Tortilla Press or Tortillero was first made of wood, but today can be found made of cast iron or resin. There are aluminum tortilla presses, however they tend to break easily, so save your money. The press has two large wood blocks or round plates. Mesa is rolled into a ball and pressed in the press in order to make a tortilla.

Traditional Mexican cooking, like many other traditional methods of cooking can is labor intensive and can take some time. Today, we have many shortcuts available that may help. Many people use these shortcuts to make very good Mexican foods in their kitchen.

Another shortcut is to find a good quality Mexican bakery in your hometown. They will supply you with very high quality tortillas (in corn or flour) that will prevent you from having to grind your own corn or press your own tortillas. Why not enjoy some Mexican food tonight. - 30312
