Spanish alphabet

The Spanish alphabet is a Latin alphabet of 27 letters used to write the Spanish language. It has the same letters as the ISO Basic Latin Alphabet with the additional letter ñ, which is named eñe (pronounced EN-yay). In addition to letters, the alphabet also uses accent marks to mark stressed syllables. The Spanish alphabet is fairly phonemic, which means words are usually spelled the way the sound. While different accents exist in Spanish like with any living language, pronunciation is usually fits well with spelling.
The letter combinations "Ch," "Ll," and "Rr," used to be letters of the Spanish alphabet and sorted by itself in dictionaries (but not "Rr," since no Spanish words begin with "Rr"). They are no longer letters of the Spanish alphabet and are now just letter combinations with their own sounds. The letters K and W do not appear in original Spanish words, only in words from other languages (e.g. karate, kilogramo, wáter).
