Did you ever realize the letter W is pronounced double U?

[Anonymous]

Cause it legit looks like 2 Us together, Whoever named it didn't even try 😂

[purplepoppy]

Old English used to have words with uu or vv to make an yoo sound. They were often written overlapping and so W was born

Most have gone but vacuum, residuum, and continuum live on,


Let's not forget the annoying silent W in words such as wrap, write, wrung that don't make sense , it's wholly wrong.

[12karen]

Yeah lol but that is English
In French it’s double V so it makes more sense

[Asker]

Depends on how you write it, I do the uu 😂

[12karen]

Haha
I go vv

[Asker]

You go the sophisticated way lol

[12karen]

*the French way

[Asker]

Right yea that's a better way to say it lol

[DryGermanGuy]

Advantage German language: For us it’s just a {We}. Very nice when you have to spell internet addresses. 🙂

[FunkyMonkee]

Aaaawwww!!! NO SHIT? And ALL THESE YEARS, I've been saying, "double vee"!!

[sage2021]

[Twodogs0525]

Did you know it's faster to say, "world wide web", than to say, "WWW"?

[CriminallyInsane]

Double V would be more accurate

[Asker]

Not if you draw it the other way, which I do 😂

[Maxnanet]

In french its double v

[Kenkebuttery]

Yes. You just realizing this?

[Asker]

[Kenkebuttery]

[Asker]

[queenofcardio]

[Mariogirl09]

[Xawyx-2]

Indeed, but it should be double V instead.
