        <description><![CDATA[<p>catianew,</p>
<p>in Spanish, when one word ends in a vowel sound, and the next word begins in a vowel sound, the two vowels cram themselves into one syllable.&nbsp;</p>
<p>So the words "no" and "hay" are pronounced all in one syllable:&nbsp; [nway]</p>
<p>This is often hard for native English speakers to hear because the syllable [nway] is impossible in English phonology, so they're not expecting it.</p>
<p>Remember, the /h/ is silent in Spanish; also Spanish speakers don't like to separate their words with *glottal stops, the way English speakers like to.&nbsp; You'll probably never hear a two-syllable [no-'ay] in the wild.</p>
<p>*(a glottal stop is the sound that separates the two syllables in the word "uh-oh.")</p>]]></description>
