Liked the Spanish pronunciation video but it did not leave enought time to repeat a word before moving on to the next.

OK. If you want a hard g before e or i you write it gue or gui. The u is silent. But if you want the u sound in there you put a dieresis above the u. A dieresis is like an umlaut in German or a horizontal colon. Example: pingÃ¼ino, cigÃ¼eÃ±a.

Sorry guys for some reason the special characters I put in my comment above came out as junk. The A with a squiggly line and one fourth sign together should be a u with a horizontal colon on top. The A with squiggly line and plus-minus sign should be the spanish n with the squiggly line. Sorry for any confusion.
