Spanish is considered one of the easiest languages to learn. And it also shares some similarity with English. And the very first step when we learn a language is to learn the alphabet. So what are differences between Spanish and English alphabet? Let's check out!
Spanish and English alphabet
The fact is that learning the Spanish alphabet requires only learning 3 more letter than English alphabet which are ch (che), ll (elle), and ň (eňe).
Not officially a part of the Spanish alphabet, there are many other letters created by the addition of accents. For example, many vowels such as o, e, or u have accents added which change the pronunciation as well as the meaning. You may see that many other languages treat accented letters as separate letters and add them to their alphabets. However, do not apply this when learning Spanish.
