in Spanish, well actually mostly in Spain, the 'z' is sometimes pronounced 'th', making diez sound like 'dee-eth'. happens with the 'c' sometimes too, like in hacer, which would then become 'ath-er'

(brunetterox915):Its not usually said with just a "th" sound, though. "dieth" sounds stupid

No. S's are pronounced the same as English S's. Only people from Cádiz pronounce S's like you said.

Ooh. My class was watching a video in Spanish, and all the people in there were from Spain and they all had lisps.
So I suppose they were from there, then.

Yup, the Spanish sound like that. Not all spanish-speakers. I think it's kind of cool.

Whenever I'm listening to my mum's Spanish music in the car, it sounds like they've got such a huge lisp, because our family is from El Salvador, and it's just...odd.
