How else would it be pronounced, how is the anglicised pronunciation?
(Serious question by a non native speaker)
Paraneoptera@sopuli.xyz 5 months ago
“Anglicized” is probably not the best way to think about it. The Latin letter “v” was pronounced “w” through the classical period, but had shifted to β or v (fricative) by the third century, long before English existed. V was pronounced v (voiced labiodental fricative) for many centuries. And though we do tend to give the classical period a lot of prestige, it was just one phase for Latin.

Funny part is, the same shift happened in a lot of languages. I think some more obvious examples are modern German and Polish, where letter W corresponds to the V sound. Although I believe that the shift happened in German and then Polish borrowed the letter with the new pronunciation.

With “v” sounding like it does in other English words like valve.

I work in IT and had a dude use the UwU accent with me on a call today while I was trying to fix his email. Made me wanna barf.

How did you know that he was doing it on purpose? Some people talk that way naturally.
LaunchesKayaks@lemmy.world 5 months ago
Because the call started off with him talking normally. I’ve spoken to him a bunch before today.
