Lesson 3-b

Susan Owens
This is a continuance of the free Spanish lessons. Do keep in mind that these lessons are to help aide you while learning the Spanish language. These lessons are not ment as a means of replacing any Spanish lessons that you might already or are planning to be taking. These lessons are not a certified lesson plan. Nor are they compiled by a certified teacher. These lesson are made to help you learn the Spanish language easier.

In this lesson we will be learning how to count from six to ten in the Spanish language.

Remember back to lesson 3-a, we had learned how to count from zero to five.

Numbers six through ten in the Spanish language are fairly simple to learn.

Remember to practice. If at all possible, get a partner to help you learn. Studies show that people are more likely to remember what they learn if it is learned while role playing, writing, and reciting it.

The number 'Six' when written in the Spanish language it would appear as follows :

Seis

This is fairly simple to pronounce.

Say - Ss

The word 'Say' is pronounced the same as the word 'Say' is pronounced in the English language.

Now for the number 'Seven'.

Siete

Don't be fooled, this is not as hard to pronounce as it looks.

I have broken it down for you.

See - ett - tay

Above :

Let's move on to the number 'Eight'.

It is written in the Spanish language as follows:

Ocho

This is a pretty simple and fairly easy number to pronounce.

I have broken it down as follows :

O - Ch - O

Easy right? Remember the sound that the vowel 'O' in the Spanish language makes.

The number 'Nine' looks harder to pronounce then it really is.

Nueve

This isn't as hard to pronounce as it looks.

New - wave - A

Above : The words 'New' and 'Wave' are both pronounced as the English words 'New' and 'Wave' are pronounced. The 'A' is also pronounced as the first letter of the English alphabet, the 'A'.

The number 'Ten' is another simple Spanish number to read, write and say.

Diez

Pronounced as follows :

D - Ace

Above : The 'D' is pronounced the same as the letter 'D' is in the English alphabet.

And the word 'Ace' is pronounced the same as the word 'Ace' in a deck of cards is pronounced.

That is the numbers Zero through Ten.

Let's recap on what we learned for the complete lesson three.

Zero - Cero

One - Uno

Two - Dos

Three - Tres

Four - Cuatro

Five - Cinco

Six - Seis

Seven - Siete

Eight - Ocho

Nine - Nueve

Ten - Diez

Remember to practice whenever you get the chance. Practicing will make it easier for you to learn and be able to read and write in the Spanish language.

One suggestion is to make flash card with the numbers written on them from numbers zero to ten. On the other side write the Spanish words for them. Lay them down with the numbers facing up. On a sheet of paper, try to write down the Spanish words for these numbers. When you are done writing them down, flip over the cards and see how many you got correct.

'See' as in the English word, 'I SEE you'.
