      I love how 10% of words are cognates from English, and another good portion are cognates from Spanish.

          Many words come from Spanish, German, Polish, English, Turkish, and some are made up.

              Indeed. It sounds like the letter has its own postcode.

                I expected 'letero' be pronunciated letéro, not létero. Is there a rule about tonic accents?

                  Shouldn't it be has instead of have

                    Why is it adreso with an n when asking for an address doesn't?

                      To BKANF: Because in this phrase 'adreso' is the object of the verb 'havas', I think.

                        Why adreson and not adreso?because of does?
