Me parece que Ñ en español = NH en portugués = GN en francés

Chinese doesn't even have an alphabet, so the obvious answer to your question is no.

The sound that the letter makes exists in most languages.

Only Spanish and Filipino use this letter in their alphabets currently (languages that borrow Spanish words may keep the ñ or they may spell it in a way that makes more sense to the native speakers of those languages), and the letter represents the same phoneme (sound) in each.

Por exemplo EspaÑa (Es)
EspaNHa (Po)
Espagne (Fr)

Explanation is a noun. Explain is a verb.

También, tengo otra pregunta... cuando quiero decir, "I have already mentioned it to you,"

puedes decir... Ya te he mencionado. "Ya he mencionado" means I have already mentioned" so.............. where would the "te" go?

Could you please be kind enough to explain to me what you want to know?

Ella quiere saber cómo se dice la frase "I have already mentioned it to you." Ya escribió parte de la traducción, pero no supo dónde colocar el pronombre de complemento indirecto.

Hola,

I have already mentioned it to you
Ya te lo he mencionado

Te debe estar escrito antes del primer verbo conjugado (y si hay cualquier objetos indirectos escríbelo ante ellos (lo - perdóname si se no llaman objetos indirectos)

Espero que te lo ayude
