The W is one of the last letters of the Latin alphabet and it is a very particular case, since, together with the K, is one of the less frequently used letters in Spanish, although it is widely used in English, and also in some oriental and indigenous languages. For example: wifi, web, watherpole, wasabi, wichí.

The name given to the letter W differs in different countries: it can be called double u, double ve, double ve or even double ve, depending on the region in question.

As the letter W did not exist in Latin, its incorporation into Spanish was by way of loan, and it is only used in terms from other languages. Regarding pronunciation, depending on the case, it can represent the vowel phoneme / u / or the sequence / gu /.

That is why, although there are words with graphic adaptations admitted by the Royal Spanish Academy and that are included in the dictionaries, they are recent and very few additions. On the other hand, many terms associated with new technologies begin with W, which has increased the frequency of use in Spanish by speakers, regardless of their incorporation or not in the dictionaries.

A representative case of this type of loan is that of the terms derived from the WhatsApp messaging service. According to the adaptation criteria corresponding to Spanish, one can speak of “sending a wasap"Or directly"wflake”.
