b or v

In this statement (ir a lavar mi taza) what sound would the (v) make?

---

Hi Edee, "b" and "v" are pronounced in Spanish the same way, as "b".

The pronunciation of the "v" as labiodental as in other languages has never existed in Spanish, and only occurs spontaneously in Valencian and Majorcan speakers and in some areas of southern Catalonia, when they speak Castilian, influenced by their regional language.

Also occur spontaneously in some parts of America under the influence of Amerindian languages.

In the rest of the Spanish-speaking area, the two letters have identical pronunciation / b /. The sound is stronger at the start of word on "Bebé", the first b is explosive, while the second is softer (voiceless). The same goes for words like "vivo".
