Based on the Roman alphabet, the Spanish alphabet is formed since 1803 (fourth edition of the academic Dictionary) by 29 letter. It is named after the first two Greek letters alpha (α) and beta (β), originally, in Hebrew and Phoenician, meaning “bull” and “home”, the Greek alphabet is an adaptation of the Hebrew-Phoenician alphabet.
The ch and ll although digraphs are also letters of the alphabet to represent a single sound, unlike the digraph rr has the same sound as the initial r. In the 10TH Congress of the Association of Spanish Language Academies (Asociación de Academias de la Lengua Española) in 1994 it was decided, at the request of various international organizations, to adopt the universal Latin alphabetical order integrating the words started by ch and ll in their respective places within the c and l without leaving them out from the alphabet, as is commonly believed.
