W is for "el wallaby"

A wallaby is like a smaller version of the kangaroo.  It is spelled the same in Spanish as it is in English; however, we must remember to pronounced the "LL" in the middle as a "Y" sound.  The "Y" at the end acts like the letter "I" in this word as a vowel.  The "Y" in Spanish works as a "sometimes" vowel making the "I" sound when there are no other vowels in the syllable.  This Wallaby is wearing a necktie to remind us that he is masculine in gender.
