How do you spell the word for "ñ". Is n-yay correct? I know it may be a stupid question but how else can I find out if not here?

In Spanish, it is spelled "eñe". Phonetically, I would say "en-yay"

According to google it is "enyay" thanks to all who answered and viewed. - billy-jones, Nov 23, 2009
To help others looking for similar things, let me say that I typed an enyay into the search box to find the answer. - billy-jones, Nov 24, 2009

What about the chinaman who is called Mr. Ng? How do you pronounce that?

In Italian that same sound is spelled gn as in cognac.

That must make typing easier than ñ. - 0074b507, Nov 23, 2009
Of course, then you'd need to explain why it's not pronounced "cog-nack". - samdie, Nov 23, 2009
I think aloshek explained it best - 0068e2f4, Nov 23, 2009
