The 'r' in conquistadora does not roll. Well, maybe it does in your book. But it's against Spanish pronunciation. You only roll r's when they are the first letter of a word, or if it is a double-r in the middle of a word.

from seeing ryopan's other posts, im pretty sure he's familiar with the spanish langauge as well... i think that maybe he was just joking (he did say that you had to say the guitar's name annoyingly).

btw, i took four years of spanish, and i can't ever seem to get those damn rolled "r"s right... stupid tongue...
