Spanish phonetics – visualisation

April 5th, 2009 | 2 Comments | Posted by Graham A Stephen

The University of Iowa provides a really excellent online phonetics tool:
http://www.uiowa.edu/~acadtech/phonetics/spanish/frameset.html

All the sounds of the Spanish language are illustrated with animations showing the mechanics of the production of the sound, together with step-by-step descriptions.

There are also video clips of a Spanish speaker saying each sound (in isolation and also in various example words).

Librería de Traducciones

Como algunos de ustedes sabrán, hace un poco más de un año trasladamos nuestro blog de Blogspot a WordPress. WordPress es una excelente herramienta para blogs -la mejor según la opinión de muchísima gente- por la variedad de extensiones (plugins) que pueden instalarse para enriquecer la funcionalidad del mismo.

Sin embargo, la mayor parte de estas extensiones están únicamente en inglés. Así que, considerando que este es un blog bilingüe y como contribución a todos aquellos hispanohablantes que utilizan WordPress, hemos preparado una serie de traducciones de una gran cantidad de las extensiones o plugins más populares de esta plataforma.

Para descargarlos, encuentre el listado completo aquí:
