निम्न तालिकाओं में स्पेनी भाषा में प्रयोगित ध्वनियों व अक्षरों को अन्तर्राष्ट्रीय ध्वन्यात्मक वर्णमाला और मिलती-जुलती हिन्दी ध्वनियों द्वारा स्पष्ट करा गया है। ध्यान दें कि हिन्दी की दी गई ध्वनियाँ केवल निकटतम हैं - कुछ स्पेनी ध्वनियों की हिन्दी में सटीक बराबर की ध्वनी न होना सम्भव है।

Other than in loanwords (e.g. hámster; hachís; hawaiano), the letter ‹h› is always silent in Spanish except in a few dialects that retain it as [h] or [x] (halar / jalar; Sáhara).[15]
↑ अआइई/b/, /d/, /ɡ/ and /ʝ/ are between fricatives and approximants ([β̞,ð̞,ɣ̞,ʝ̞]; represented here without the undertacks) in all places except after a pause, after an /n/ or /m/, or—in the case of /d/ and /ʝ/—after an /l/, in which contexts they are stops [b,d,g,ɟʝ], not dissimilar from English b, d, g, j (Martínez-Celdrán, Fernández-Planas & Carrera-Sabaté 2003:257-8).
↑The phoneme /f/ is often pronounced as [ɸ], with the lips touching each other rather than the front teeth.
↑In metropolitan areas of the Iberian Peninsula and some Central American countries, /ʎ/ has merged into /ʝ/; the actual realization depends on dialect. In Rioplatense Spanish, it has become [ʃ] or [ʒ]. See yeísmo and साँचा:Harvcoltxt for more information.
↑ अआइईThe nasal consonants/n,m,ɲ/ only contrast before vowels. Before consonants, they assimilate to the consonant's place of articulation. This is partially reflected in the orthography. Word-finally, only /n/ occurs.
↑ अआThe rhotic consonants/ɾ/ ‹r› and /r/ ‹rr› only contrast between vowels. Otherwise, they are in complementary distribution as ‹r›, with [r] occurring word-initially, after /l/, /n/, and /s/, before consonants, and word-finally; [ɾ] is found elsewhere.
↑The marginal phonemes are found in loanwords, largely from Basque, English, and Nahuatl.
↑In many dialects, /ʃ/ is replaced by [tʃ] or [s]; e.g. show[tʃou]~[sou].
↑The Spanish /e/ doesn't quite line up with any English vowel, though the nearest equivalents are the vowel of play (for most English dialects) and the vowel of bed; the Spanish vowel is usually articulated at a point between the two.
↑The Spanish /o/ doesn't quite line up with any English vowel, though the nearest equivalents are the vowel of coat (for most English dialects) and the vowel of raw; the Spanish vowel is usually articulated at a point between the two.
↑In Spanish, the semivowels [w] and [j] can be combined with vowels to form rising diphthongs (e.g. cielo, cuadro). Falling diphthongs though; e.g. aire, rey, auto, are transcribed with /i/ and /u/.
↑Some speakers may pronounce word initial [w] with an epenthetic/g/; e.g. Huila[ˈgwila]~[ˈwila].
