Módulo 1·0/5 complete
¡Hola! - Getting Started
Meet Spanish sounds and greetings, count to twenty, and name the days of the week
What you'll learn
- The 27 letters of the Spanish alphabet, and the sounds English doesn't have — ñ, rr, j, and z before e and i
- Greetings for every part of the day: buenos días, buenas tardes, buenas noches
- The courtesy phrases you'll use hourly — por favor, gracias, perdón
- Numbers from cero to veinte, and why uno becomes un or una
- The days of the week, all masculine and all lowercase — el lunes, los lunes
Why it matters
Spanish spelling is honest: once you know how a letter sounds, it sounds that way every time. That's a gift English never gave you, and it means the work you do here pays off in every module after it. Add greetings, courtesies, numbers and days, and you already have enough to open a conversation, be polite in it, and agree on when to meet again.
