what letter in the alphabet is w
The 23rd letter of the English alphabet is a bit of a wonder. The humble âwâ is the only letter of the alphabet with a three-syllable name. It is also the only letter with a name that does not indicate its phonetic use. The complications of âwâ are doublefold because of its name, âdouble uâ and its shape, âdouble vâ.
