Can't help you with the portuguese question, Eric, but the Castellano, I
can help with having studied Spanish in high school.
Never separate two adjacent L's. The double L in spanish is not like an
Italian double L in that it represents only a double consonant. The LL
digraph in Spanish is a palatal consonant on its own. It sounds like the
"lli" in the word "million". Often, it's pronounced like the Y in "yes".
So, 'senzillo' would be pronounced "Sehn-see-yoh" or, in Castellano
"sen-thee-yoh" because the castillian dialect differentiates between the
spelling "s" and "Z" (in Central and South America, they are pronounced
the same) and the "Z" phoneme is pronounced as a TH in "with".
Yours,
Adam

Is there someone on the list who's confortable enough with portugese to
tell me what would be the correct hyphenation for these words:
teñyo : te-ñyo or teñ-yo
descoñyo : des-co-ñyo-ci-da or des-coñ-yo-ci-da
I really prefer the second choice, but still have a slight hesitation.
second question:
In spanish (or castellan in this case), would the words with 2 ll's (for
example senzillo) separate between the two “l” like it normally does?
