Q is the best letter of the alphabet

Anonymous
Basically u and v had different sounds but shared the same character “v.” Sort of like how “c” can be different sounds. There was no “u” character. Or if there was, it was just the same as “v.”

At some point, vv or uu indicated a new different sound (the w sound).

And then at another point v and u separated in their distinct sounds and characters.

vv or uu standardized to “w” over time. But in handwriting, if you think about it, some people write it pointy like vv, and some write it curvy uu, so it’s still out there!

+1. Way too hard.

You don't appreciate the flexible multi-taskers in your life.


Flexible multitasking is great - redundancy is not.

Is it a double u? A double v? Who named this?


I took a series of English language history classes in college. Not just English, but Spanish etc, has the history of UU. It’s super interesting (to me). Look it up!

How do you make the "ch" sound without C?

How is this even a debate? X is the best!

Give C its own purpose then and make it say ch without needing to rely on the h.

Q should come later in the alphabet.

Wrong.

Best is W. Second is T, and third is F.
