This process was sometimes called linkage editing and the output known as a load module. A compiler works with what are sometimes called 3GL and higher-level languages. An assembler works on programs written using a processor's assembler language.
In general, however, when between vowels (as in exactamente) the Spanish x is pronounced like the English ks sound but softer or less explosive. When it comes before another consonant (as in expediciÃ³n), it has the s sound in some regions/countries but the soft ks sound in others.
Only the single letter f is used to make the f sound in Spanish. The Spanish never use ph to produce the f sound, and the letter p is always pronounced like the p in âpapa.â If the English word has ph or a double f, the Spanish cognate will always use one f; for example, fotografÃ­a, fÃ­sico, and terrÃ­fico. There are some important exceptions to the âno double letterâ rule.
