W


Dear Blogosphere,

Don't ask how this sort of thing happens, but I was reading about the letter "W." It is the only commonly used 2-syllable letter in the English alphabet (œ, as in Cœliac, is the other one). It takes thrice as many syllables to use the abbreviation "www" as it does to actually say "world wide web."

That made me laugh.

And this nerdy moment was brought to you by Natalie and Wikipedia!

Love,

Nat
