La regla · The rule
The speaking exam is a conversation: introduce yourself, answer questions about your life, manage a small everyday exchange. Every one is a page you have already done — now do them ALOUD, timed by nobody.
Y también · And also
Card one: your name, age, family, town. Card two: your day, with times. Card three: buy a ticket to Lima. Card four: order at the café. Say each in under a minute, out loud, today. Despacio — slowly — is allowed.
Ojo · Watch out
en voz alta is aloud — literally in a high voice. la voz (voice) ends in z and says s; its plural is las voces. la vez is a time, an occasion: otra vez, again.
Do it now — on paper
Say all 7 words aloud twice from the respelling, then once from the Spanish spelling alone — begin with en voz alta.
Copy every word with its accents on paper; then cover the English column and write each meaning back from the Spanish.
Write two sentences of your own that get the watch-out line right, then the two practice pages of workbook lesson 25 in Module 5 are the written half of this page.
This free course is the reading half. The writing half — write-in lessons, daily practice pages with built-in review, self-checks and a full answer key — is the companion workbook series, The Spanish Ladder: one workbook per module, fifteen in all, released band by band with the Basic band (Modules 1–5) first.
