The 26 letters and their names
French has the same 26 letters as English; the names are what differ. Under each letter is its French name, then how to say it, with the stressed syllable in capitals. U, and the u in qu, has no English match: say "ee" with your lips rounded. Accented letters such as é, è and ç are not letters of the alphabet, so no extra key is needed: any US or UK keyboard types it.
