Bienvenido o bienvenida, my dear beginner!
As I told you in the previous podcast, we discovered a new problematic sound in Spanish that comes from the letter "C". Remember that C+A+O+U sounds as CAT (casa, correr, culebra), but when it meets with E or I it sounds like thing in the north Spanish variation (CENAR, CIEN) or with S sound in the American and south Spanish variation (SENAR, SIEN). And also, remember that if you want pronounce the vowels E or I as Cat, you must change the C letter for the QU sound: QUIEN, QUERER.
However, to the sound C+E+I we must add a new one: the sound of the letter "Z".
