Counting letters in string

I have a question for python. How do I count repeated letters in a string. Apart from comparing each character with a-z? Thank you in advance.

s = 'abracadabra' print(*(f'{letter}: {s.count(letter)}' for letter in sorted(set(s))), sep='\n')

Question unclear. How can you count the occurance of a letter, if you don't even know what letter it is ?

I meant this: You enter a random string for example “hello there!” and then I wish to know how to count the letters so 2x l, or 3x e.
