Scrabble Spanish

Scrabble SpanishI live in Puerto Rico. My friends and I usually play in both in English and Spanish at the same time. But if you what to learn Spanish I will recommend playing the game entirely en Español. I will give you the pros and cons of this version:

Pros:

1. You can make higher scores in Spanish. K-8 points, W-8 points, Q-8 points but much easier to use, LL-8 points, RR-8 points, Ñ-8 points, and it is much easier to get rid of all your letters than in English.

2. Spanish words are written just as you pronounce them (that is why there are no Spanish spelling bees).

3. You can learn Spanish in a fun way, plus the game can be used in English and it has a couple more vowels.

Cons:

1. There are no really good Spanish dictionaries, other than the Spanish Royal Academy Dictionary (Amazon has it at a reasonable price). And no Spanish Scrabble dictionary is to be found. This will make it hard on verb conjugation.

Whether you play it in Spanish or English or both the Spanish tiles are definitely better. Go ahead and try this version. Come on, you know you what to.

I ordered one of these for me since I am learning Spanish.When I played with my friends, they requested one also and I had to order two more.

If you like the english version of scrabble, and are learning or already know spanish, you will love this game.

Stress accents are disregarded. The letters K and W are absent since these two letters are rarely used in Spanish words. According to FISE (Federación Internacional de Scrabble en Español) rules, a blank cannot be used to represent K or W.

Using one C and one H tile in place of the CH tile, two L tiles for the LL tile, or two R tiles for the RR tile is also not allowed in Spanish Scrabble (see rules in Spanish provided by the FISE).

If you know spanish, and love scrabble, then this is the game for you.If you are learning spanish, then I would recommend that you steer cleer.In my opinion, there aren't enough vowels, and too often I get the K, W, and X tiles.I have a friend from Panama who tells me that he finds the English version easier than the Spanish!Anyway, it is fun, but you must have a good working vocabulary, or a thorough knowledge of verb conjugation, in order to do well.
