Dental or alveolar nasal in virtually all languages that use the Latin alphabet. A common digraph with <n> is <ng>, which represents a velar nasal in a variety of languages, usually positioned word-finally in English. In languages like Italian and French, <gn> represents a palatal nasal (/ɲ/). The Portuguese spelling for this sound is <nh> (while Spanish and a few other languages use the special <ñ> character). In English, n is generally silent when it is preceded by an m, in words like hymn (although it is pronounced in words such as damnation).
In the International Phonetic Alphabet, the lowercase [n] represents the alveolar nasal sound. A small capital [ɴ] represents the uvular nasal.
n is the second-most commonly used consonant in the English language (after t).
MathematicsIn mathematics, the italic form (n) is the common symbol for a variable quantity.
