no problem, and if you are learning it since few days your level is very good i think. ;)

 

poquito is written poquito because the pronunciation. to make it sound /k/ you have to write 'qu' before 'i' and 'e'

 

like queso (cheese). it's pronounced /keso/ :)

 

if you write pocito, it sounds /pozito/ and that's incorrect.

I see! Thank you - that makes sense. I just thought of "poco" and stuck on the "-ito" lol.

well you must remember than when a word sounds as /k/ and if goes 'i' or 'e' before the /k/ sound it goes with 'qu' not with 'c' ok. ;)

OK I will write it down so I will never forget!! :)

;)

 

the same rule works for g sound when you want it sound like in 'gato'. you have to write 'gu' before 'i' and 'e'.

 

like in guerra and águila.

 

because if you write it like this 'gerra' or 'agila' is incorrect because it'll sounk like /j/ like in 'jarra'.
