Maybe you are mixing up ''trabajo and trabajó'' accent on the ó. Trabajo en casa. I work at home. Ayer (él/ella) trabajó en el jardín. Yesterday he/she worked in the garden

(hahaha) for american and english people it's difficult because the letter R is not pronounced "rrrrrr" like in europe or arabic countries. In the word "trabajo" there is 2 different pronunciation for R : the R and the J from "trabajo" sound differently. Because i'm used to go to spain every year for vacation i can speak a little spanish but when i'm in France my accent is horrible. It's only when i'm in spain that my accent is much better. it's like "magic".

Well, maybe it is. But I can help you with the pronuciation. I'm using skype: bony.moronie1

if you mean "work", it's "trabajar" (and if you talk about you it's "trabajo") but if you mean "worked", it's "trabajé" (if you're talking about you)

Spanish is one of the most phonetic languages alive. There are only a few sounds in Spanish that don't exist in English. (rr, ñ, I think that is it) Pronunciation rules: 1. If word ends in vowel, n, s, stress is put on second to last syllable. (comIda) 2. If word ends in anything else (r, l, etc), stress is put on last syllable. (busCAR) 3. If there is an accent mark, it overrides first two rules. (dámelo) That is it. You will probably get the hang of it once the sounds are ingrained in you.
