I like it because I can text u instead of you. Saves me countless seconds a day.

It's also the only reason q works, which allows me to call your thread queer.

qi, qat, qaid, qai, qadi, qoph, qanat, tranq, faqir, sheqel, qabala, qabalah, qindar, qintar, qindarka, mbaqanga, and qwerty are all acceptable in Scrabble bruh.

Using it in words like "urn" and "gurney" also produces a different sound when paired with the 'r' - so really more like 4.5 or 5 sounds.

It's the least bought letter on The Wheel. Really doesn't get the respect it deserves.

And if you put two u's together you get a whole nother letter- w
U is big time underrated.

There are 8 standard phonograms that feature the letter U, with even more sounds-
AU can be 6 different sounds in fault, sauce, gauge, sauerkraut, chauffeur, or aura.
AUGH- can be 2, as in laugh or caught
BU- as in build; if the B and U are pronounced separately, it does not apply-- see butane.
UR - like fur
GU- as in penguin
OUGH- 6 different sounds-- cough, plough, rough, dough, though, or bought.
OU- 5 different sounds- soul, you, mouse, touch, would
QU- 1 sound- as in quit.
UI- 3 sounds- fruit, guide, suite
U- 5 sounds - jug, statue, put, number, and june.
