The alphabet is a series of letters that is used to form words. The term comes from the Greek letters alpha and beta. The "Latin" or "Roman" alphabet, as used in the US and UK, contains 26 letters which have upper and lower cases but no regular diacritics. There are several other alphabets used by other world languages.

Letters (upper case, capitals):

A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y, Z.

Letters (lower case)
