Using the V

Content

• Examples of the use of the V and its rules

The letter V It is the eighteenth consonant of the Spanish alphabet. It is often called go short or uve (depending on the region) to distinguish it from B or be long. For example: villa, tranvía, negativor.

The phonetic value of both letters was losing differences over time and, if ever the requirement of the "V" was to reproduce it without friction between the lips, giving a sound with more vibration, today that difference has been greatly attenuated.
