Spanish language X - Pronunciación - Spanish Pronunciation

The Spanish letter X has two different pronunciations, just like its English counterpart. There is no real rule as to which X's are pronounced which way; it's just something to memorize for each word.  

Sound Similar English sound Examples
  
[ks] axe, mix éxito, excepto
[gz] exact, example exacto, exigir

  

Please note that this explanation is only a guideline for the Spanish that I know, which is Castilian Spanish. There are many regional variations in Spanish pronunciation.
