W

[MuNkY]

Anybody else notice how a "W", looks nothing like a double U? I mean, lets take a look at it...

W

UU...VV

It looks more like a double V to me than a double U.





No real topic. Just thought I'd share.

double U kinda rolls off the tounge. it sounds much better than double v. good point though.

 

[TheBellhop]

Same with the word "Indubidably". If you really sound it out it sounds like "Undoubtably". And the two words mean the same thing...kind of.

 

[polysisterchick]

i've noticed that...

i've also noticed if you use/type/write a word many times in a sentence it starts to sound/look wierd

 

[EeyoreFan1]

Weird! Like why cant "are" be spelled "r"??

thats what I was going to say!!!

 

[Daisymae26]

Yeah, I've kind of wondered that too....

It's like there are two ways to "write" a "w": the way it turns out on this computer as "w" or the way you can write it with curved bottoms like this "uu" (although that looks nothing like a "w", you get the picture).

Yeah, and that was my rambling comment for the day!

I have noticed that too, but when I would bring it up, people thought I was crazy..

 

[Lil_Tink]

I am so dense. I didnt get this topic for the longest time.

 

[pacificnorthwester]

thats what I was going to say!!!

Same here lol

 

[goofyandplutoluver]

And why does "I" have to be special and be capital!?

(I am being serious)....

I think that since it is a proper noun because your are talking about yourself, that it has to be capitalized. You don't write your name like this: billy, your normally write like this: Billy.

~Billy, who really needs a LIFE!

 

[marypops!]

when i write my W's i sometimes write quick and it looks like a U does that count?

this is an old quote but i just thought that i would share this...
in Spanish the letter "V" is said like vey...
the letter "W" is said like dublevey...
so they are like saying double v...

If you've ever seen a sign that's really old, probably during the colonial times [I've seen some in Pennsylvania], They spell all the words with Us in them with Vs.

For example,
Under would be spelled like Vunder.
