In English, there is only punctuation at the end of a sentence while in Spanish the exclamation or question marks are placed at the beginning and at the end.
For example: 
 ¡Qué suerte! (How lucky!) ¿Quieres cenar conmigo mañana? (Do you want to have dinner with me tomorrow?)

Thanks to the shared Latin influence, English and Spanish have many words that have a common etymological origin, called cognates since 30% to 40% of all words in English have a word related to Spanish, either with a similar sound, appearance, or meaning, making it easier to translate knowledge into the second language. Although English and Spanish share the Roman alphabet, there are some differences such as that in Spanish the vowels can have an acute accent and there is also the letter ñ.

Regarding the use of capital letters, there are some differences such as that in English they are used for adjectives related to nationalities, collective nouns, for nationalities and languages ​​and in Spanish they are not used or that in the titles of books in Spanish they are used in the first letter instead in English is used in each first letter of it.

Another important difference is that of the exclamation and question marks, since in English they are used only at the end of the sentence and in Spanish they are used at the beginning and at the end of it. We also found differences in the phonological system such as vowel sounds and sentence accents, making it more difficult for Spanish learners to acquire the English accent.

Another difference between English and Spanish is that in Spanish there is a more pronounced inflection than English with respect to verbs, for example in Spanish the verbs are marked by time, aspect, mood, person and number giving as a result in about fifty conjugated forms of the verbs, On the other hand, in English there are only 4 ways to conjugate verbs, and one of the biggest problems for Spanish students is that there is no one-to-one correspondence in the use of tenses.

In the Spanish language when we writing numbers, a period will separate numbers by the thousands and a comma will separate whole numbers from decimals. In the English language happen the opossite, we will separate numbers with a comma and numbers with a period. 

For example: Thirteen-thousand dollars and twelve cents would be written like this

  • In Spanish: $13.000,12.
  • In English: 13,000.12 USD

There are true and false cognates. The True ones are more used in academic texts, what makes it more difficult for an English Student to acquire the coloquial language.
For example

The length of the vowel is not significant in distinguishing between words. This contrasts with English, which has 12 pure vowel sounds and 8 diphthongs. The length of the vowel sound plays an important role. It is not surprising, therefore, that Spanish learners may have great difficulty in producing or even perceiving the various English vowel sounds. Specific problems include the failure to distinguish the sounds in words such as ship/sheep, taught/tot, fool/full or cart/cat/cut.

When we speak we pause and manage the intonation so that the people who listen to us are able to capture the message we are transmitting. When writting, one way to reflect the above is by using punctuation marks.

Spanish word order is generally: SUBJECT-VERB-OBJECT, like English. However, Spanish allows more flexibility than English, and generally places at the end of the sentence words that are to be emphasised. This may resulte in non-standard syntax when Spanish learners speak or write English. 
There are numerous other minor differences in the two languages that may result in negative transfer.

El ritmo del idioma inglés depende de dos tipos de estrés. Cuando decimos "acentuación" aquí, queremos decir que enfatizamos o decimos una sílaba o palabra con más fuerza que las otras partes de la palabra u oración, lo que hace que esas sílabas y palabras "acentuadas" se destaquen y se vuelvan más notorias.
