ArchivesSo how do you pronounce "Dieguito"?
in reply to a message by Rene
I have trouble with "gu". Is it pronounced like a G, or like in "agua", or like in "Guatemala"?

[dje'gito]:
GU in front an E (guerra) or an I (guitarra) sounds just like G+A (gato), G+O (gota) or G+U (gusano).
GÜ+E (desagüe) or GÜ+I (agüita) sound like GUA (agua).
G+E (general) or G+I (gimnasia) sound like J+A (jabón), J+O (joven) or J+U (julio).
Agua and Guatemala have exactly the same sound [gwa].
