Now I'd like to know if this information is right
Algunas palabras en español que comienzan con ñ:
  • ñoqui: gnocchi (a type of Italian food like a potato dupling) In Italian gn=ñ
  • ñandú: rhea (a type of bird)
  • ñoñería: inanity, nonsense
  • ñoño: dull, squeamish
  • ñora: a type of red pepper
  • ñu: gnu
