Definition of V
V V V (v[=e]).
1. V, the twenty-second letter of the English alphabet, is a
vocal consonant. V and U are only varieties of the same
character, U being the cursive form, while V is better
adapted for engraving, as in stone. The two letters were
formerly used indiscriminately, and till a comparatively
recent date words containing them were often classed
together in dictionaries and other books of reference (see
U). The letter V is from the Latin alphabet, where it
was used both as a consonant (about like English w) and as
a vowel. The Latin derives it from it from a form (V) of
the Greek vowel [Upsilon] (see Y), this Greek letter
being either from the same Semitic letter as the digamma F
(see F), or else added by the Greeks to the alphabet
which they took from the Semitic. Etymologically v is most
nearly related to u, w, f, b, p; as in vine, wine;
avoirdupois, habit, have; safe, save; trover, troubadour,
trope. See U, F, etc. See Guide to Pronunciation, [sect]
265; also [sect][sect] 155, 169, 178-179, etc.
2. As a numeral, V stands for five, in English and Latin.
