Etymology

[edit]
  • /v/ is from West Germanic stem-internal*b and*f; from stem-initial*f around Aachen and in the Netherlands.

Letter

[edit]

V

  1. A letter in the German-based alphabet of Central Franconian.
  2. A letter in the Dutch-based alphabet of Central Franconian.

Usage notes

[edit]
Systems for the use of V
  • In the German-based spelling of Moselle Franconian,v is used instead of regularworf only after the German cognate.
  • In the German-based spelling of Ripuarian (without Aachen region), initialv is used as above, but internalv is the regular spelling for/v/.
  • In Aachen and the Netherlands there is a threefold phonemic distinction betweenw/ʋ/,v/v/,f/f/, which the spelling reflects.
Doubling of V and use in the syllable coda
  • In the German-based spelling,v is doubled after short vowels except in certain function words and when the letter is followed by another consonant within the word stem. In the syllable coda, the choice betweenv andf may be based on internal analogy, but more often follows the German cognate.
  • In the Dutch-based spelling,v is doubled after short vowels. Codav is automatically replaced withf.

Usage notes

  • 《汉语拼音方案》 defines a standard pronunciation for each letter. However, these pronunciations are rarely used in education, and another pronunciation is commonly used instead. In the case ofV,《汉语拼音方案》 defines its pronunciation asㄪㄝ, using the initial(/⁠v⁠/), which is obsolete in standard Mandarin. This is one of the only instances of the letter being used in standard Pinyin.

Orthography and pronunciation

Germanicf was pronounced[v] in some dialects ofMiddle High German and was predominantly speltv. This voicing was later reversed stem-initially in most dialects and stem-internally in some (including Standard German). In inherited words, the spelling mostly switched back tof accordingly. This always happened beforel, r, u, ü, but otherwise there remains a number of relicts. These are the prefixver-, the wordsFrevel,Vater,Vetter,Vieh,viel,vier,Vogel,Volk,voll,von,vor, and their derivatives.

In native German proper nouns, initialV is always/f/, but the internal pronunciation is hard to predict and differs by region. For example, it is usually/f/ in northern German placenames (e.g.Hannover,Havel,Jever), but/v/ in western ones (e.g.Grevenbroich,Leverkusen,Overath).

V was retained in words of foreign origin and its pronunciation varied. The contemporary standard is normally/v/, but always/f/ inEva,Vau,Veilchen,Veit,Vettel,Vlies,Vogt. The wordsVers,Vesper,Vize have/f/ in Germany, but usually/v/ in Austria. Both ways are de-facto standard inEvangelium,hieven,Larve,Nerven,Pulver (though dictionaries may recognise only one form or the other).
