西班牙语母语者常犯的错误
A common mistake for Spanish speakers is sometimes using the Spanish word directly instead of the English word. For example, saying "Yo quiero agua" instead of "I want water." It is important to learn the English word for each item.
Another common point for beginners is remembering to use "a" or "an" before a single food item. For example, say "an apple" (because 'apple' starts with a vowel sound) and "a banana" (because 'banana' starts with a consonant sound).
