- Actvally I think that the incomplete implementation of the 'v' to 'v' is fvnnier than a complete translation.
The u's as v's is genious
this is totaly ridiculus. im kindof offended, but not really
what would really screw with people is if we changed all the 'j's to 'i's.... and wrote in all-caps.
Actually, not only that, but, at least in early Latin, there was no "w"; it was "vv." Also, they NOTONLYWROTEINALLMAJISCULELETTERSBUTHADNOPUNCTUATIONORSPACESINITMUCHLIKEIMWRITINGTHISRIGHTNOW.

Im gana change as many words to have "w"s and "u"s :D "Lebull"
To inform you guys, in Latin, the only actual implementation of U's as V's was in capital engravings. In the texts written in papyrus or other parchment, the there weren't any V's because they only used lowercase letters except for the names of people and places. Everything was a U. Example: "nouum" instead of "NOVUM". Trust me on this one, guys. I've got a modestly hot Latin teacher who knows a thing or two. 209.221.133.67 14:18, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
That's right; Latin actually did have "u"s. How else would you have fourth declension words?
The only time that V replaces U is in engravings because curvy letters are a bitch to carve.
V replaces W. That's why the Latin word for "wine" is "vinum."
Ah well, this is a joke article anyway. :)
