In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: The Spanish language uses the same vowels that are used in the English language, "a," "e," "i," "o," and "u." There are five vowel sounds that you should become familiar with. Unlike the English language, each of these vowels always makes the same sound in every single word. Also remember that vowels are never silent when you are pronouncing Spanish words. " The letter "a" in Spanish is sounds like the "a" in the word "father." If a Spanish word has more than one "a," all of the "a"s will make the same sound (e.g. manana). "Manana" sounds like "mah-nya-nah" The long "a" found in words such as "blame" or "name" is never used when you speak Spanish. " The letter "e" in Spanish sounds like the "e" in "weigh" or the "a" in the word "late." For example, "pero" should sound like you are saying "pay-ro." The long "e" sound in words like "need" or "speed" are not used when you are speaking Spanish. " The letter "i" in Spanish sounds like the "i" in the word "machine." The Spanish "i" also sounds like the long "e" in the word "be." Never pronounce "i" with the sound used in the word "hide," "if," or "hit." For example, "hija" sounds like "ee-ha." " The letter "o" in Spanish is always pronounced as a long "o" in the English language. Spanish "o"s sound like the "o" in the word "no." Avoid pronouncing the "o" that is used in the word "opportunity" and "other." For example, "como" sounds like "koh-moh." " The letter "u" in Spanish is pronounced like the "u" in the word "lunar." This letter only makes one sound in the Spanish language. In English, words that begin with the letter "u" (e.g. useful, utilize) make a "y" sound. However, do not use this pronunciation of the letter "u" when you pronounce Spanish words. "Curcuma" sounds like "koor-koo-mah." The letter "u" never makes the sound found in the word "flutter" or "ultimate" either. Native English speakers have a tendency to drag out vowel sounds. Spanish vowels should be pronounced using short sounds. For example, in English you may pronounce the word "hey," as "heeeeey." Instead, keep the pronunciation short as if you are saying "late." Elongating the sound of your vowels when you speak Spanish will alert others that you are not a native Spanish speaker and can make it more difficult for other people to understand what you are saying. A diphthong is two vowels next to each other. When you see this, pronounce the sound of the first vowel and then pronounce the sound of the second vowel. Practice until you can say the two sounds as one syllable. You will have to make the sounds quickly and not drag out the sounds of each individual vowel. For example, "feo" sounds like "feh-oh,"cuando" sounds like "kooahn-doh", and "suizo" sounds like "sooee-soh."
Summary: Know the five vowels. Say the letter "a. Pronounce the letter "e. Practice saying the letter "i. Say the letter "o. Be careful with the letter "u. Do not drag out the sound. Practice diphthongs.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Chronic split nails could be the result of an underlying medical condition like a fungus or vitamin deficiencies. If you experience chronic broken nails, let your doctor know. They can look for underlying problems and prescribe medical treatment as necessary. Going back and forth between wet and dry can make your nails extra brittle. Minimize the number of times you get your nails wet and then dry by making sure you wear waterproof foot gear on days with rain or snow. However, soaking nails for 15 minutes a day, patting them dry, then applying a moisturizer (e.g., an emollient such as organic lotion or petroleum jelly) can add moisture to the nail. Use foot cream, cuticle cream, or petroleum jelly on the area around your nails to keep them hydrated. Apply a treatment at least once a day and allow it to soak in completely to keep your nails from getting brittle and splitting. Keep your nails extra moist by keeping some foot cream by the sink and moisturizing them every time you get out of the shower.

This will add moisture and reduce brittleness. You can also take a supplement containing biotin to strengthen your nails. Avoid nail hardening agents. They may offer some benefits, but they often contain ingredients like formaldehyde that do more harm than good.
Summary: Work with your doctor. Wet your nails less frequently. Moisturize your nails on a daily basis. Wear nail polish and fake nails less often. Strengthen your nails

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Dirt spots look like dust in your paint job (which is exactly what they are). Sand them out with a very mild sandpaper; about 2000 grit should do. If you want to make the buffing process easier, you can go back over these sand scratches with an even finer 3000 grit sandpaper. It is not necessary to use the buffing compound on the entire paint job (unless it looks dull). You do need to use the compound, which is usually the first step in a multi-step buffing system, on any areas that you sanded. Buff lightly until you cannot see the sandpaper scratches anymore. Be aware that moving the buffer too slowly, getting it caught in a corner, or buffing at too high a speed can result in burning or peeling off the paint. Clean off excess buffing solution with a mixture of water and isopropyl alcohol. Now that you are done painting and buffing, you have no need for keeping the wheels masked. When you unmask the wheel, check for any overspray that might have gotten on your wheel. If there is any, use a clay bar and lubricant to remove it. The polish will often come as a second step in a buffing system. Sometimes there is even a third step that promotes shine even further. Apply the polish with a buffer on low speeds with a soft foam pad and then wipe it away with a clean microfiber cloth. Do not use traditional wax or silicon on fresh paint. If you seal the paint it will not properly vent and this will cause bubbling and or cloudiness in your paint job.
Summary:
Sand any dirt spots. Buff the scratches. Peel off any tape, plastic or paper remaining. Polish your wheel.
