English now, both of which use (mostly) the same >characters. Yet Spanish has five vowel sounds, and English has something like 14 vowel sounds.

In fact spanish has five vowel sounds, althought it is said that we, 'andalusians' have ten vowel sounds (with the same characters a-e-i-o-u). This is one of the reasons for that sometimes, other spaniards can't understand our dialect.

Saludos ;-)),
