One distinguishing feature of the English language that is absent in Spanish is the use of the "schwa" sound (/ə/). The schwa is an unstressed and neutral vowel sound that can appear in many English words, such as the first syllable of "sofa" or the second syllable of "banana." In contrast, Spanish has a more consistent vowel pronunciation with less variation in unstressed syllables, making the schwa sound less common or nonexistent in the language.
