edward“most noticable differences between the English accent and the Spanish accent (when speaking English)”
Initial
sp,
st, and
sc do not occur in Spanish. As a result, the speaker of Spanish adds an intial
e, thus:
espeech, estop, eschool. y is often pronounced as a
j, making English 'yoke' and 'joke' sound the same.
The distinction between /b/ and /v/ does not occur in Spanish. As a result
verb tends to be pronounced
burv.
Lax
i is not found in Spanish. As a result
sheep is pronounced
ship or
ship pronounced
sheep, seemingly randomly.
The d is often pronounced
th (as in
then) in Spanish. As a result,
bad is pronounced
bath.
I think these are the most noticeable differences.
