How to Use 'junio'
The Spanish j is a breathy sound like the h in hot, so junio is HOO-nyoh, never JOO-nee-oh. Learners often mix up junio (June) and julio (July): junio has the n of June. Write it lowercase: en junio, el 1 de junio.
Regional note: In Argentina, Chile and Uruguay, June is the start of winter, and school winter holidays (vacaciones de invierno) usually fall in July.
