Etymology. The Romance languages are descendants of Latin.

Sorry, I don’t have the time to follow this course. I really like the idea though!

Pretty good @theearlywalker.


Here are some common words. We are going to use them to start to do our first sentences.

  1. Boy = niño.
  2. Girl = niña.
  3. Table = mesa.
  4. Desk = escritorio.
  5. Cat = gato.
  6. Dog = perro.
  7. Mom = mamá.
  8. Dad = papá.
  9. Watch = reloj (de pulsera.)
  10. Food = comida.
  11. Day = día.
  12. Night = noche.
  13. Tree = árbol.
  14. Door = puerta.
  15. Water = agua.

Save this works because we are going to use them later. The next theme is very useful to read: The syllabus.

For those who don’t remember what’s a syllable, let me remind you:

A syllable is each hit of voice that each word has.

In the next example:

Amo (love)

We separate it like this:
a-mo, because when we say this word we use hits of voice.

After see the vowels, we stars to see the “m” with the vowels. This is what we did in our first exercise. Now we’re going to use them.

Ma, me, mi, mo and mu.

Linking each other we can form new words like:

A-ma (he/she/it loves)
A-me (He or I. Depending the verbal time.)
A-mo (I love)
E-ma (woman’s name)
E-me (name of this letter)
E-mo (Social culture)
E-mu (animal)
Ma-ma (he/she/it sucks)
Ma-má (mom)
Ma-me (you suck)
Ma-mi (loving way to call your mom)
Ma-mo (I suck)
Me-ma (name)
Me-me (name. Also the jokes on internet.)
Me-mo (loving way to call)
Mi (possessive pronoun: my)
Mí (objective pronoun: me)
Mi-ma (name)
Mi-mo (person who just use the pantomime)
Mo-mia (mummy)
Ca-ra-co-la (conch)

And we can continue all the rest of the 2017 in this jajaja I hope you were understand me, if you didn’t, please tell me!

Example:
Separate in syllables the next words. Follow the example:

Puma: Cougar.
Pu-ma.

Regalo. (Gift)
Sol. (Sun)
Día. (Day)
Tela. (Cloth)
Salida. (exit)
Teléfono. (Telephone)
Sabiduría. (Wisdom)
Ferrocarril. (Railway)
Sería. (He/she/it would be)
Seria. (Serious, female)
Colaboraremos. (We will collaborate.)
Zapatería. (Shoe store)
Matemáticamente (mathematically)
Felipe (same word. Male name)
Vino (drink. Also from the verb come.)
Almohadilla. (Pad)

Once you under this point, you will be able to read and understand better basic sentences.

Notes:
When the “I” has accent it goes separate from the rest of the word:
Diría: di-rí-a

When the “I” doesn’t have accent it goes linked from the other letter:
Estudio: es-tu-dio.

A consonant can never be alone, it always goes linked to other letter.
