Did you know?
The letter x was once commonly used to denote the sound now denoted by j (jota – the English ‘h’). Examples exist such as Don Quixote (now spelt Don Quijote in modern Spanish) and of course Mexico (Me-hi-co).
The letter ç was once used, but has since been replaced with z in modern Spanish.
