The Polish alphabet is the script of the Polish language. It is based on the Latin alphabet but uses diacritics such as kreska - graphically similar to acute accent (for example: ź, ś), superior dot (ż) and ogonek (ą, ę). The standard character encoding for the Polish alphabet is ISO 8859-2 (Latin-2), altough both ISO-8859-13 and ISO-8859-16 encodings include glyphs of Polish alphabet.
There are 32 letters in Polish alphabet, including 9 vowels and 23 consonants.
