There are no words in Greek that start with q but some have q in them
After going through two Latin dictionaries without finding a word strting with the letter y, I get the idea that there isn't one. The best I could come up with is that the Romans would use y in a Greek derived word, but not at the beginning of the word. The y is the symbol for the Greek letter upsilon. <><><> Preceding is a very good answer. The ancient Roman alphabet had only 21 letters- and Y was not one of them.
There is no Q in the ancient greek alphabet. There was a qoppa, but it was an allophone for kappa - see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qoppa I am doing a project for school right now on Ancient Greece. We have to have a word for each letter of the alphabet. For "Q" I put quail. The Greek god Hephaestus's' favorite bird was the quail. There are not any other words involved with Ancient Greece that start with "Q". I hope this helped you.
