The Spanish language traditionally does not include the "w" sound. However, the letter "w" does appear in Spanish, primarily in words borrowed from other languages, such as "whisky" or "wifi." In these cases, the pronunciation of the "w" can vary depending on the speaker's native dialect and the influence of the original language.
