Wrong.

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

Q should come later in the alphabet.

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


Flexible multitasking is great - redundancy is not.


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


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

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!

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!
