Cultural Tip
In many Spanish‑speaking countries it’s customary to start a presentation with a brief greeting, thank the audience, and then state the topic using a phrase like 'Mi presentación habla de…'. Keep a polite and slightly formal register, especially in academic or business settings. If you’re speaking in Latin America, you’ll hear the /s/ sound for the 'c' in 'presentación' (pɾe.sen.taˈsjon), while in Spain it’s pronounced with a /θ/ (pɾe.sen.taˈθjon).
