Hi Larry,
I realy enjoy the Spanish lessons. I watch your shows ( again and again) on my ipod in the train to work. The combination with the book “Spanish for Dummies” realy works well.
I have one question about the pronounciation of the letter ‘v’ is it always a soft ‘b’? Vivir should be pronounced bibir?
Gracias

Hola Hessel,
Yes, you are correct about the pronunciation of the letter “v.” It is like a soft “b” sound (almost like the b in the English word “boy” — maybe even a little softer, especially when the “v” is in the middle of a word.
Thank you for your nice comments. I’m glad that you are finding these Spanish podcasts helpful.

Larry,
I love the podcasts they are great! Will you be having any more extended podcasts in the future? I thought the last one was fantastic. I took 3 years of Spanish in high school and then a bit more Spanish in college but haven’t had anyone to practice with since. (It’s been years since I’ve been in school.) Any suggestions on how I can become more conversive. I still remember quite a bit of what I learned. Any books you can recommend to us or any other advise would probably help all of us listeners. Please keep up the frequency we love it.
