The better question is as to what letters aren't in the Latin alphabet. (The Romans spoke Latin.) Also, which letters were absent relates to how long ago we're talkin'. Since I'm supposing you mean Classical Latin: A B C D E F H I K L M N O P Q R S T V X Y Z 'V' was sometimes pronounced like a 'U', but it also served typical 'v' uses, but I was taught to pronounce it like a 'W'. There is no 'J'. They were pronounced as 'I's Other than that, they all made more or less the same sounds. I hope that helps! -Bob Hoss
Letters are not numbers. Not all letters in the alphabet represent Roman numerals though some letters do.
The modern western alphabet is based on Classical Greek and Roman letters. The first two letters of the Classical Greek alphabet are 'Alpha(A)' and 'Beta(B)' . By ligating these two words we have the word 'Alphabet'. Alpha Beta = Alphabet(a). Roman numerals are selected letters from the alphabet in order to represent numbers. M (Mille)= 1000 D = 500 C (Centum) = 100 L = 50 X = 10 V = 5 I (Capital letter 'I') = 1.
None in the Roman alphabet.
None. There are no vowels among the Roman Numerals.
Firstly there is no such thing as the Roman alphabet, they spoke Latin. 'N' was written in upper-case letters as all Latin is.
There are 8 letters in alphabet, or 7 "unique" letters (A appears twice). There are 26 letters in the English (Roman/Latin) alphabet.
The Latin alphabet of Rome had 23 letters, and the English alphabet uses 26 letters.

MAXIMVS The Romans didn't have a u in their alphabet.
because the roman (latin) alphabet does not contain these letters. They were added later to the alphabet to spell words in "barbarian" languages.
There was not a Roman alphabet. There was the Latin alphabet, which was the alphabet of the ancient Romans (they were Latins) and the other Latins. Modern western European languages have adapted and adopted the Latin alphabet. In English the only letters which do not come from the Latin alphabet are J, U and W.
How many characters are then in the Roman alphabet? That is a good question. According to sources, the original Roman alphabet had twenty-three letters, and the modern alphabet has twenty-six letters.
It is: ROMA We have the exact same alphabet as the ancient Romans.
