Mexican Spanish Pronunciation
So far I’ve been using these resources to study Mexican Spanish pronunciation:
IPA/Spanish, Spanish phonology, and Mexican Spanish - I know Wikipedia isn’t always accurate, so I’ve been combining these three pages with other resources.
Spanish language, alphabet, and pronunciation - I’ve been scrolling down to the section on Spanish pronunciation in Latin America. As with Wikipedia, I’m not sure how much I should trust this site, but it seems pretty thorough.
Interactive IPA chart - For when I want to compare an unfamiliar sound in Spanish to sounds in English.
Forvo - When I read about a sound that I’m not sure if I pronounce correctly, I use one of the resources above to find examples the sound in different words. Then I listen to native speakers pronounce the words on Forvo and I try to imitate their pronunciation.
I wish I had better resources to use, but when I Googled “Mexican Spanish pronunciation”, all I could find were articles from people trying to teach me Mexican slang, or poorly designed websites with no sources listed. I also tried searching for linguistics papers, but the ones I found were from unrelated studies or were published decades ago. I’ll keep looking and will write an update if I find a useful resource!
