u following a q is always silent unless it has ¨ on top of it when it is not. Such as the wonderful word “pengüino” :)
Funny story: I have a friend who has a friend (no it’s not one of those stories…) who has perfect pitch (very good thing to have as a musician). The problem is that this leads to her being able to pick up the very subtle tones of a language so well that no one thinks she’s from anywhere else. The only phrase she knows in French is “I don’t speak French” (I won’t try to write that in French), but she can pronounce it so well that most French won’t believe her and can get quite angry when she refuses to say anythign else in French :)
