​The abc's are actually very similar to the english translation.
A=ah
B=beh
C=seh
CH=cheh
D=deh
E=eh
F=efeh
G=heh
H=ah-cheh
I=eee
J=ho-ta
K=ka
L=eleh
LL=elleh
M=emeh
N=eneh
Ñ=enyeh
O=oh
P=peh
Q=cooooo
R=ereh
S=eseh
T=teh
U=ooo
V=veh
W=dobleh veh
X= Eh-quis
Y= eee-gree-eh-gah
Z= zetah

Notice how there are more letters in the spanish language then there are in the english language. This is because the different combination make different sounds. Like ll makes the same sound that the Y does in english. Also the Ñ makes more a of a ny noise. Although saying the letter Y in spanish looks daunting, it really is not that difficult to say. Just practice saying the letter slowly and after a while you can bring it up to speed so you can sing El Alfabeto with us.

Teige walks up to Anthony who is singing.

¡Hola!
Anthony ¡Buenos dias! ¿Que les guste cantar conmigo?
Teige: ¡Sí!
(singing)

English translation
Hey
Anthony: Hi! Would you like to sing with me?
Teige: Yes!
