Best Answer

There are 24 letters in the alphabet we use (derived the Latin alphabet; note that there were several letters we use today which the Romans didn't). To add breadth and depth to the answer, I will give the phonetic alphabet, which gives each letter in the alphabet a word which is not able to be confused with any other in the English language, so that the person receiving an audio message can easily understand the letters being conveyed. The alphabet is as follows:

Alpha

Bravo

Charley

Delta

Echo

Foxtrot

Golf

Hotel

India

Juliet

Kilo

Lemur

Mike

November

Oscar

Papa

Quebec

Romeo

Sierra

Tango

Uniform

Victor

Whiskey

X-ray

Yankee

Zulu

The English alphabet is the alphabet used to form the words of the English language, used in general communication.
