Llana, Aguda, and Esdrujula

Today I will be showing you the difference between a llana, aguda, and esdugula word. I am apologizing in advance for all of the missing accent marks, this blog site will not allow me to put them on words.

Okay so down to business. A llana word is a spanish word that ends in a vowel, an n or an s.
An aguda word is a spanish word that does not end in a vowel, n, or s. For aguda words the natural emphasis happens on the last syllable.
Lastly an esdrujula word is a word with an accent where the voice inflection is on the 3rd to last syllable.


The video posted above is a video that further explains esdrujula. Hope you enjoy.
