* The palatal stops {{IPA|/c/}} and {{IPA|/ɟ/}} occur in English as ] of {{IPA|/k/}} and {{IPA|/ɡ/}} before front vowels. Palatal stops are ] in many languages including ] and ].
* The palatal nasal {{IPA|/ɲ/}} corresponds to the Spanish ''ñ'' and the French and Italian ''gn''. It is pronounced as one sound, not a nasal plus a glide.
* The ''ll'' sound is a velarised lateral, close to English '']''.
* The contrast between flapped ''r'' and trilled ''rr'' is the same as in Spanish. English does not have either of the two sounds phonemically. The ''tt'' in ''butter'' is a flapped ''r'' for most North Americans and Australians.
* The letter ''ç'' is sometimes written ''ch'' due to technical limitations because of its use in English sound and its analogy to the other ]s ''xh'', ''sh'', and ''zh''. Usually it is written simply ''c'' or more rarely ''q'' with context resolving any ambiguities.

  1. ^ The contrast between flapped r and trilled rr is the same as in Spanish. English does not phonemically have either sound.
  2. The letter ⟨ç⟩ is sometimes written ⟨ch⟩ due to technical limitations or because of its use in English for the same sound and its analogy to the other digraphs ⟨xh⟩, ⟨sh⟩, and ⟨zh⟩. Usually, it is written simply ⟨c⟩ or, more rarely, ⟨q⟩, with the context resolving any ambiguities.
