The two letters in the English alphabet that were latecomers are "J" and "U." The letter "J" was introduced in the 16th century as a distinct letter from "I," while "U" emerged in the 15th century, evolving from the letter "V." Both letters were initially used interchangeably with their predecessors before being recognized as separate characters in the alphabet.
