1.
The Spanish alphabet is very similar to
the English alphabet.
Both alphabets use the same letters in the
same order.
Spanish just adds a few extra letters.
Of course, the letters have different
names.

2.
A B C CH D E F G H I J K
L LL M N Ñ O P Q R RR S
T U V W X Y Z
The letters CH, LL, and RR are technically no
longer considered true letters of the alphabet.
However, in some dictionaries, they are still
included as separate letters.

3.
The only 2 letters in the Spanish alphabet
that have different sounds are the letters
C and G.
They both have a soft sound before the
letters E and I
ca = “kah”
ce = “say”
ci = “see”
co = “koh”
cu = “koo”
ga = “gah”
ge = “hay”
gi = “hee”
go = “go”
gu = “goo”

4.
The vowels in Spanish are
A E I O U
Each vowel only has ONE sound!

5.
Wait...
Did you get that?
Maybe you need to hear the
vowels one more time...

6.
Most of the consonants in the
Spanish alphabet sound the same as
in English.
B C D F G K L M N P Q R S T W Z
These letters have the same, or
nearly the same sound, in English
and Spanish.

7.
The letters with different sounds
H = silent
Ñ = the letters “ny” in English
LL = the letter “Y” in English
J = the letter “H” in English
RR = a “trilled” r sound
in Spanish, the “V” makes the
same sound as the letter “B”.
