piano – el piano

(Pronounced pyah-noh)

To remember that piano is pronounced pyah-noh (piano) in Spanish, use the following mnemonic:

The bull loves playing the piano (piano).

Note: The bull is a Spanish icon, and whenever you see it on our images, it means that the word sounds similar in both English and Spanish.

Piano is masculine, so it's el piano. Imagine an elephant learning to play the piano.
