How do you pronounce W?

I pronounce it as "double-u".

This question has been plaguing my mind for many, many years. Thanks for asking it...I voted "Double-U." AKA the proper way.

But seriously...what in god's name made you think of this? haha.

On topic: dubba-u. Three syllables, no 'L' sound.

yea everyone I know says it two ways, never heard it dubbayoo except for myself lol.

Double-u is the correct pronunciation.

Double-U of course.

Because anyway it IS a double U. Because back in the day in the Latin alphabet the u was written as a V.

I noticed once I played the clip. I deleted the post. My bad. :P

Pirate700

Heh, don't you hate it when that happens? I shall delete mine as well.

uu/double u

LOL, my mom pronounces it dubbyah, and I've told her for years it's DOUBLE YOU, :lol:

It depends for me. I know that double-u is right and when I take my time to annunciate things, I'll pronounce it that way, but if I'm talking casually more often than not it slips to dub-u.

S, s, Double, double, U, u, V, v

(Some of you may be too young to remember this :P )

A W is a double U, so I don't know how the hell you would pronounce it any other way. :?JustPlainLucas
