Pronunciation of falda

Pronunciation of falda

When I hear the phrase "la falda es bonita", it sounds like "la fine-da ...". I would expect to hear something like "foul-da". Do you agree? I have to admit it has taken me years and a pair of good hearing aids to make progress with hearing Spanish pronunciation. Thank you for your excellent Spanish learning application!

Hola Vince

I checked the audio and there is nothing wrong with it. It's saying "la fahl-dah" as Marsha said. It does take quite some time to master pronunciation, yes, lots of practice... : ))

The letter a is pronounced as ah so falda would be pronounced fahl-dah
