Spanish from Spain (Español de España)

Peninsular Spanish is the Spanish spoken in Spain. For many students, it is the kind they know best from classes, trips, or European TV. The sound often stands out first: the way people say c and z, and the sound of words together. Daily talk in Spain can sound very different from Latin American Spanish, even when the words on paper look the same. On this page, you hear real Spanish from Spain in short videos: talk, stories, jokes, and daily life from real people in Spain. You will hear words like vosotros, coche, and móvil. But the biggest gain is getting used to the sound. If most of your Spanish has come from Latin America, this page helps your ear get used to Spanish from Spain. No hard lesson needed.
