They are different words

Papa is a latino/andalusian word for potato (european spanish "patata") it sounds different to papá (dad) in the strong vowel. Last "pa" is stronger in dad but both "pa" sounds the same in "potato".

Ano/año is easier. Ano is anus. Año (soft N, if you know russian) means year. The "n" sound is way different.

the ñ has kind of a Y sound to it. Nyay as opposed to just N

>What about their pronunciation?
That's the purpose of having them. "Papa" without accent sounds stronger in the first sillabe, while "Papá" does in the second one. The ñ basically sounds like "nee".

The ñ is a letter in its own right. The sound is different to a 'n'.

>Papa/papá

Notice the accent mark. It is there to indicate the stress goes in the second syllable.

Also, papa is used in Latin America. Here we say patata.
