is originally not included --> was not originally included

I'm not sure about "as well as" in this context. To me, I think "as well as" would come after a positive earlier statement. I'd tend the say "neither were "W" and "Y", but I'd appreciate someone else's comment on this point.

Edit: The German is in the present tense and doesn't include "originally" so should it be: "K" is not included in the Portuges alphabet, neither/nor are "W" and "Y". (?)

Edit(2): I'm confused now, because the English sentence was there first so the German must be a translation of your sentence. In which case the German translation might be incorrect. (comment left on German sentence).

The English sentence is the original one. :>

Thanks, I've worked it out by the numbers and times entered (still a bit confused sometimes).
