que cantaba el rey David.
Hoy por ser día de tu santo
te las cantamos a ti.

Nacieron todas las flores
En la pila del bautismo

Ya la luz del día nos dio
Levántate de mañana

Saludos.
In this Introductory Lesson, the course content, directions for your Spanish
language learning and a practice with the sounds of español are presented. In this course you will develop your oral
reading, writing, listening, speaking skills and your understanding of language
cultural practices of Spanish language-dominant, and bilingual users, and in
relation to different texts in Spanish in particular with your first academic
major. You are advised to focus on understanding Spanish language as a social and interactive practice
with different speakers and users of español, investigate some specific topics;
explore your voice, body movements, and language to build up your Spanish
language skills; explore the intersections and new spaces of building up your
bilingual/bicultural voices; and self-assess your learning in this course
periodically. The Practice focuses on the exploration of the Spanish language
alphabet. Repeat
after me.
A (a); B (be, be de burro):
-CH (che)-; C (se); D (de); E (e);F (efe): G (ge); H (ache); I (i); J (jota), K

Nouns (nombres/sustantivos) are
content words that designate objects, things, ideas, or persons that are either
masculine of feminine. Masculine nouns tend to end in –O (chicO), feminine
nouns in –A (chicA). Nouns that follow this rule should be memorized with their
articles: el or la.
PLURAL: Add –s to nouns that end in las vocales (a-e-i-o-u) with the corresponding feminine/masculine article: las casas; add –es to nouns that end in consonants: los profesores; omit the accent mark from the singular noun (canción) when adding –es: las canciones; change final Z to C before adding –es: (el lápiz): los lápices.
Extra Notes on Nouns
Feminine nouns also end in –dad, -ción, -sión. Ejemplos: la ciudad, la canción. Some cognates: la lección, la canción, la emoción, la nación, la composición, la confusión, la represión, la televisión, la pasión, la fricción, la sesión, la promoción, la ilusión.
Some feminine nouns: la calle, la clase (cognate), la frase (cognate), la luna, la mamá, la noche.
