In Latin American Spanish, there is no pronunciation difference
between <z> and <s>; both are /s/.
Note that in Spanish, the pronunciation of <z> is also the
pronunciation of "soft" <c>, that is, <c> before <e> or <i>. So
Peninsular /graTias/, Latino /grasias/.
> Well, the normal is /z/.
By whose definition of "normal"? :)
