Experience – la experiencia
(Pronounced ehks-peh-re-ehn-see-ah)
To remember that experience is pronounced ehks-peh-re-ehn-see-ah (experiencia) in Latin American Spanish, use the following mnemonic:
It was an experience I'd never forget. An experimental rocket re-entered the atmosphere and crashed through my roof. You can now see a (experiencia) huge hole in it!
Experiencia is feminine, so it's la experiencia. Imagine a lady enjoying a wonderful experience.
