The letter W is not used in true Spanish words. Most English words that contain W are related to German.
In a publication in Spanish, W will show in proper names like Washington, just as vowels with written accents might be used in English context in a place name like Chichén Itzá. But Chichén Itzá is not an English word, and Washington is not a Spanish word.

To find the equivalents in a dictionary, say, you would have to look under 'k' in English, 'q' in Spanish.Other words are apparently more similar:'to cause' = 'causar', bu there is a different stress and pronunciation:('too corz' and 'cah-oo-SARR')(But at least both would be under 'c' in a cognates alphabet)A SPANISH cognates alphabet begins with the Spanish words, socausar = to causequiosco = kioskAs stated earlier, the alphabets are almost the same, but in Spanish:'ch....' is treated as a separate letter, after 'c''ll....' (pronounced a bit like 'y' in 'yet') follows 'l''n~....' (as in 'Espan~a') follows 'n''rr....' trilled more than the preceding 'r'and the pronunciation of most of the letters is different between the two languages - Spanish being generally more phonetic, i.e. the sound a letter has is the same in most words, unlike English, where e.g. 'ea' can be pronounced 'ee' (tea, seat, mean); 'ay' (break, steak); or 'e' (wealth, stealth).
