Beginner Spanish 101 · Lesson 5

Family & People

Learn how to talk about your family in Spanish — parents, siblings, grandparents and more, each read aloud in clear Spanish with its English meaning and pronunciation. Words include their article (la / el) so you pick up gender: words ending in -a are usually female, -o male (la hija / el hijo, la tía / el tío).
