Basque alphabet

The Basque alphabet is a Latin alphabet used to write the Basque language. It consists of 27 letters.

The letters of the Basque alphabet are the 26 letters of the ISO basic Latin alphabet plus the ñ (and the ç, as a variant of the c).

This is the whole list, plus the IPA phonology:

All letters and digraphs represent unique phonemes. The main exception is when l or n are preceded by i, that in most dialects palatalizes their sound into /ʎ/ and /ɲ/, even if these are not written.

H is mute in most regions, but is pronounced in many places in the Northeast, which is the main reason for its existence in the Basque alphabet. Its acceptance was a matter of contention during the standardization since the speakers of the most extended dialects had to learn where to place these h's, silent for them.

There are several digraphs (successive letters used to represent a single sound):

For most of its history, Basque writers used the conventions of Romance languages like Spanish or French. Thus Pedro Agerre's 1643 book was titled Guero corresponding to modern gero ("Later") and the 18th-century motto Irurac bat would be Hirurak bat ("The three as one"). The nationalist politician Sabino Arana proposed several changes, including new letters such as ĺ and ŕ that were not accepted in the standard orthography.

In a sample of 6,692 letters the most common letter in Basque is a, the least common v. Notice w, y, and q did not appear at all in the text.
