Phonology

  • Honduran Spanish, as a Central American variety, pronounces the fricative /x/, written with ⟨j⟩ or ⟨g⟩, as a simple aspiration [h].
  • /ʝ/ is at times elided in contact with front vowels.
  • Word-final /n/ becomes velarized, as [ŋ].
  • /s/ is often aspirated or elided in word- or syllable-final position. As an apparent extension of this, it may even be aspirated in word-initial or word-medial, syllable-initial environments. This word-medial aspiration is most common near morpheme boundaries, and in the pronoun nosotros, 'we'. S-reduction is most common in the north of Honduras. It is less common in areas of Copán Department near the Guatemalan border, in Comayagua, and among the upper classes of Tegucigalpa.

Local words

These words are some slang words used in Honduras. Some may also be used in neighboring El Salvador and elsewhere.
