We didn’t study the rules for the acentos ortográficos yet; but when you memorize these equivalents you are learning also that all Spanish words that end in ción, sión or ión use an acento ortográfico. As you remember, cognates are words that are identical or nearly identical in spelling in both languages because they have the same origin or root.

This only occurs for the days of the week where one uses the definite article “el” or “los” to indicate “on” which day. In Spanish, on the other hand, we don’t write the months of the year with a capital letter and also we don’t use a definite article before the names of the months. If the vowels are the combination of a soft and strong vowel, the diphthong exists even with the “h” in the middle (Remember the “ h” is silent producing a diphthong).

Although they are the same words in English and Spanish, the difference is in the tone when we speak and in the exclamation marks when we write.

In these videos, you will hear the pronunciation for basic greetings, introductions and questions related to “how are you?” and how to describe yourself. Pay attention to the usted forms since this is the polite way to address those you do not know or who are not among your family and friends.

It means you know the name of the action, but just like the word “infinity” implies an unknown end, the infinitive means one does not know who is doing the action since it is not broken down to correspond to a specific noun.
