I'm struggling here because I don't know what that word is. So I can't work out what the ultimate pronunciation of female is either
Tamales are a type of food. (Pronounced like Tom-all-ays)
So the joke is making you read "females" (fee-males) like Fem-all-ays
Tah-MAH-lehs would be more accurate. 'Females', read as in Spanish, would be feh-MAH-lehs.
It's easy, you read Spanish as if every vowel had that 'h'. Vowels do not change their sound.
That's a horrible explanation, right? Here. That's how you always pronounce the vowels.
