Cápa uses the 26 letters of the Latin alphabet, with tone, stress and length(of a sound) marked my diacritics. These diacritics are mostly based on the [[w:Portuguese language#Orthography|Portuguese alphabet]], with ⟨á⟩ and ⟨à⟩ indicating rising and falling tone respectively, and ⟨â⟩ indicating primary stress and ⟨ā⟩ indicating a lengthened allophone. | |||
