Why is the letter W, in English, called double U? Shouldn't it be called double V?

It is in German..................

5. A noun and a verb started dating and had a happy relationship for a while. Eventually they broke up because the verb thought the noun was too possessive. Some gossips also thought the verb was too tense. ------

The noun became an object of a preposition.

Red Badger: It is in German.

Not true!

A "U" is called in German a "Uuh" (phonetic transcription).

A "V" is called in German a "Fow" (ditto).

A "W" is called in German a "Vay" (ditto).

Regards,

...Maybe oxygen is slowly killing you and it just takes 75-100 years to fully work.

The time period without Oxygen is much shorter. The issue has to be peanuts. Nobody who has had any has lived past 120.

The letter "W" is also the only letter in the alphabet that is more than one syllable.

I wonder how many of you are going to run through the entire alphabet to verify!

"Every time you clean something, you just make something else dirty."

When I was in college and had no recourse but to use communal washing machines and dryers, the thought occurred to me that one could never get 100% of your clothes clean at the same time. Once you had spent a couple hours at the laundromat and brought your freshly cleaned clothes home, the clothes you wore that day would need to be washed.

I thought a nude laundromat might be the solution, but there would be no good place to carry your quarters.

There are some in the deep south that would argue that point. I've lived in some areas where, "F" is pronounced, "ay-EFF," "L" is pronounced "ay-ELL," etc.

A couple of word conundrums that have occurred to me:

1. We use the word "bunk" for something that is false ("That's bunk!"), so shouldn't "debunked" mean that something previously thought false has been proven true?

2. "Nude" means "bare" or "naked," so if we clear-cut all of the trees off of a hill, shouldn't we say we "nuded" it rather than "denuded" it? And if we re-plant new trees, shouldn't we say we "denuded" it.

No one is even going to address the dangling participle?
