Answer Question
pollo, calle; does ll give "y" sound or "j" sound ?
Axiom 1. My hearing is not excellent.
I am near the end of Spanish 1 (Latin American) and sometimes hear a "j" sound and other times hear a "y" sound for the letters ll. Which is it, or is it another sound? Do speakers have acceptable variation in how they pronounce this? Help is appreciated as I am starting to blur sounds so as not to be too wrong in my pronunciation. Thanks.
