Spelling and sound correspondance
Because Spanish and English both have a lot of Latin influence, there are a number of spelling
tricks that can help you to.
1. Recognize Spanish words (cognates)
2. Spell Spanish words (common spelling equivalents)
But be careful - this chart is just a guideline. As always, there are thousands of exceptions. In
addition, you need to watch out for falsos amigos (false friends).

Demonstrative adjectives and pronouns

Spanish has three words where English only has two. In English, we say "this" or "that"
depending upon whether the object is close to us or not. In Spanish, we also say "this" and
"that," but there is another, separate word used to mean "that one over there." This form is
used when the object is more than just a short distance away, for example, on the other side of
the room. Here are the three forms for "this" "that" and "that one over there."
este
this

ese
that

aquel
that one over there

Noun and adjective numbers

If you know how to make nouns plural in English, you're close to knowing how to do so in
Spanish.
The basic principle is the same: In Spanish, plurals end with the letter s, as is usually the case
in English. Spanish plurals usually have an unaccented vowel preceding the s, as is often the
case in English.
Basic Rule:
In fact, if you can remember that the Spanish plural is formed by making sure the plural word
ends with s preceded by an unaccented vowel, usually e, you've taken care of nearly all of
what you'll have to learn. Most of what's left is learning the few exceptions as well as the
spelling changes needed to make the written form of the language conform to what is spoken.
If a word ends in anything other than an s preceded by an unstressed vowel, add either s or es
to the end of the word so that it does.
Adjectives are placed after nouns:
Example: una casa blanca (a white house)
Adjectives correspond in gender and number with nouns.
