The eñe (IPA: /ˈeɲe/) is a letter of the Spanish alphabet.
The symbol on top (~) is called tilde, in Spanish also virgulilla.
It originated as a ligature of "nn", the tilde being a shorthand for a smaller n on top of the first one.
The sound is present in other Romance languages with a different spelling. For example, "gn" in Italian (gnocchi) or French (mignon), "nh" in Portuguese (amanhã), and "ny" in Catalan (Catalunya).
Noun: the free falling sensation in the stomach caused by an unpleasant situation, fear, anxiety, insecurity, or any intense emotion.
Noun: autumn.
Noun: figure made of cardboard or clay filled with candy, fruit and/or toys that gets hit with a stick during certain celebrations until the contents fall out. It's complicated.
