Vowels are the romance language sounds (ah, a, e, o, oo like in Spanish), and every vowel is a separate syllable except some diphthongs, e.g., au is ow (kau kau is food), ei is a (lei is lay). It's really pretty simple, but when you look at some of the long street names it won't seem so--just keep pronouncing; there are only 13 letters.
