BIRTH OF A LETTER.
Th* Way “W” Came to Take the Place
of the Old "VV."
The printers nnd language makers of
the latter part of the sixteenth cen
tury began to recognize the fact that
there was a sound in spoken English
which was without a representative In
the shape of an alphabetical sign or
character, as in the first sound In the
word "wet.”
Prior to that time it had always been
spelled as "vet.” the v having the long
sound of uor of two it’s together. In
order to convey an idea of the new
sound they began to spell such words
as "wet.” “weather." “web,” etc, with
two u's, and ns the u of that date was
a typical v the three words above look
ed like this: "Vvet” “weather.”
“web.”
After nwhlle the typefounders recog
nlzed the fact that the double u hnd
come to stay, so they joined the two u's
together nnd made the character now
so well known ns w There are books
In which three forms of the w are giv
en. The first Is an old double v tvvt;
the next Is one in which the last stroke
of the first v crosses the first stroke of
the second, nnd the third is the com
mon w we use today
The. first accurate clock was set
up in England at Hampton court,
in 1540. Up to that time members
of the royal suite used hour glasses
in their private rooms.
