Letter edit

(lower case )

  1. The letter W, marked for its syllabic vocalic pronunciation distinct from adjacent vowels.

Usage notes edit

  • In practice, the function performed by this letter is usually undertaken by the letter Ŵ instead, e.g. dŵad, sŵau rather than expected *dẅad, *sẅau, which is not the case with other diaeresis-marked vowels.
