Beware of the lying "a" sound! I learnt it by this "script".
Ely: are you in the pool? Me: yes, I'm def in it Ely

Ellos en la respuesta pusieron : permanentemente, lo que está mal. Yo escribí definitely y ellos lo corrigieron y escribieron permanentemente. No sé de dónde sacaron esa definición.

Desafortunadamente is possibly my favourite Spanish word. It means unfortunately. It took me FOREVER to learn it.
Some of my favorite English words:
Floccinaucinihilipilification (estimating something as worthless)
Hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia (the fear of long words)
Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis (a lung disease contracted by inhaling volcanic dust)
(Spanish-speakers who are learning English, beware - these are only used as curiosities, never in actual conversation!)

Why the concentration on this one hard to spell word to the neglect of so many others. I defiantly know I do not get this in English.
