Spanish Translation
I have seen several South American Spanish speakers use the phrase "jajajaja"-
Is the same as saying "hahaha" in English ?
If so is it also used by European Spanish speakers ?

tu pregunta es curiosa porque ya me di cuenta que cada vez que digo "jajajajaja", usualmente las personas no hispanohablante me preguntan que que significa; igual nosotros en un comienzo no entenderiamos el "hahahaha"; lo que sucede alli es que la /h/ y la /j/ aunque son diferentes morfemas tienen la misma equivalencia fonologica del ingles al español.
En otras palabras son letras diferentes pero que se pronuncian igual (en algunos casos) en el ingles y el español, entonces "jajajajaja" se pronuncia igual que "hahahaha" solo se diferencian en su escritura ;-)

Letter "j"(jota) sounds as kh, jajaja-hahaha
This doesn't change it is used by both spaniards and latin americans.
