What letters that are present in the English alphabet are typically omitted in the Latin alphabet?
j and w
Fun Fact: The letters of the alphabet in Latin are the same as in English, except that Latin has no j or w. Therefore, the Latin alphabet is comprised of 24 letters only. The letter k is rarely used. Both z and y are used in words of Greek origin. Vowels and consonants are the same in Latin as they are in English. Sometimes, however, the letter i is treated as a consonant. This is the case when i is the first letter of a word and is followed by a vowel (e.g., iānua). In this case i is pronounced as a y.
