The Alphabet

This is probably the hardest thing to remember (in an English speakers mind) - how to pronounce the alphabet!

A - ah
B - be (pronounced beh)
C - che
D - de (pronounced deh)
E - e (pronounced eh)
F - ef
G - ge (pronounced g (for gate) eh)
H - ha
I - ee
J - je
K - ka
L - el
M - em
N - en
O - oh
P - pe (think "pear", without the r)
Q - key
R - air-r
S - ess
T - te
U - oo
V - ve
W - we (pronounced weh)
X - eks
Y - ye (pronounced yeh)
Z - zet

To ask someone how do you spell Angie, spell it "ah en ge ee eh" :)
(btw, asking "how do you spell ____" is "bagaimana ejaannya?" (pronounced ba-guy-ma-na eja-anya)
