How do I create a Spanish language Mastery Connect item or passage?

In Mastery Connect, as a teacher or other user without administrative permissions, you can create a Spanish language item or passage. When Spanish is selected as the language for an item or passage, the text-to-speech tool reads text with Spanish pronunciation.
