⟨w⟩ (consonant monograph)
From Teflpedia
⟨w⟩ is an English consonant monograph consisting of a single letter W.
This fairly reliably sounds a W phoneme /w/, but in some names derived from other Germanic languages, it sounds V phoneme /v/, e.g. Richard Wagner (the composer).
It is essentially never doubled to ⟨ww⟩.
W is also used in some vowel digraphs such as ⟨aw⟩, ⟨ew⟩, ⟨ow⟩ — not within the scope of this article.
