N and ñ are entirely distinct letters with different sounds - that’s not a translation problem but a typo. As long as you’re talking about Spanish, it’s the same as confusing cajones and cagones.
- nicoburns 4y agoThey are indeed separate letters, but this may not be clear to English speakers who are not used to diacritics.
- anthk 4y agoNot a diacritic, ñ is a different symbol by itself. U and ü would be a different case. Silent under gue, gui, que and qui, and not, as in pingüino.
- nicoburns 4y agoHmm, wikipedia (admittedly english wikipedia) considers it a diacritic despite the fact that it's considered it's own letter. Is there a different generic term for "typographic mark above the main body of a letter"? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diacritic https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diacritic https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%91 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%91
