17 Αυγ 2023 · There are 18 letters in the traditional Irish alphabet: “a b c d e f g h i l m n o p r s t u”. These eighteen letters are easy to learn. The letter “h” was incorporated later into the alphabet. Initially, the alphabet had these letters only. However, with time, other letters also started becoming a part of it to write English loan words.
The Irish alphabet uses 24 of the 26 letters of the English alphabet, as opposed to the original number of 18. That said, there are few words with j, k, v, x, y or z, and the ones which do exist are generally words incorporated from English. Examples include zú (zoo), vóta (vote), yóyó (yo-yo).
