Favorite French letter?
the native french alphabet is latin, no..? give or take a few letters only for loanwords/words of foreign origin.
if you count diacritics than i guess my fave would have to be any vowel with a circumflex ( ? ), because of how useful it is.

> indicates the presence of a letter that was once there before it silenced and fell away, in one of the many orthography reforms of the french language (most commonly s i think)
> and my fave, it changes the pronunciation of the vowels a, e, o.
ex: regular a, /a/, â, /ɑ/
and yes, i speak spanish. my first language.
do you like chocolate ice cream?
