Answer: Option D

Explanation: In Spanish we have:

Capital and lowercase letters, the same as in English.

Consonant and vowels, all the letters are the same in both languages.

Long vowels; actually in Spanish all the vowels sound like the names.

The things that you can not find in the Spanish are the combined sounds and silent letters (except for the words starting with H)

while in English you have things like "Loop" that combines two vocals for a new sound, in Spanish you will not find that,

Also in Spanish, each letter has a unique sound to it, so there are no silent letters

One distinguishing feature in the English language that absent in Spanish is D. Combined sounds and silent letters.

Spanish is a Romance language from spoken Latin that originated in the Iberian Peninsula during medieval times and is currently spoken mainly in countries of America and the Iberian Peninsula such as:

Spain

Colombia

Ecuador

Peru

On the other hand, English is a Germanic language that emerged in the Anglo-Saxon kingdoms of England that is currently the most widely spoken throughout the world and is spoken in countries such as:

United States of America

England

Canada

Australia

New Zealand

These two languages differ in several aspects, one of them is that in English there are combined sounds and silent letters, while in Spanish these features do not exist.

An example of this is:

The word "sheep" has a combined sound because it combines the sound of the two vowels "e" to form a new sound different from that of a single "e" as it would be in a word like "never"

The word "house" has a silent letter because the last "e" of the word is not read.

In Spanish, one example is:

The word "comentario" does not have silent letters and all the letters have individual sounds.

According to the above, the correct answer is D. because this option mentions the differences between the two languages, while the other options focus on other aspects.
