Editing V (section)

==Name==
*{{langx|ca|ve}} ({{IPA|ca|ˈve|pron}}); in dialects that lack contrast between {{IPA|/v/}} and {{IPA|/b/}}, the letter is called {{lang|ca|ve baixa}} {{IPA|ca|ˈbe ˈbajʃə|}}, "low B/V".
*{{langx|cs|vé}} {{IPA|cs|'vɛː|}}
*{{langx|fr|vé}} {{IPA|fr|'ve|}}
*{{langx|de|Vau}} {{IPA|de|ˈfaʊ|}}
*{{langx|it|vi}} {{IPA|it|ˈvi|}} or {{lang|it|vu}} {{IPA|it|ˈvu|}}
*[[Japanese language|Japanese]]: {{vr|v}} is called a variety of names originating in English, most commonly {{lang|ja|ブイ}} {{IPA|ja|bɯi|}} or {{IPA|ja|bui|}}, but less nativized variants, violating to an extent the [[phonotactics]] of Japanese, of {{lang|ja|ヴィ}}ー {{IPA|ja|viː|}}, {{lang|ja|ヴイ}} {{IPA|ja|vɯi|}} or {{IPA|ja|vui|}}, and {{lang|ja|ヴィ}} {{IPA|ja|vi|}} are also used. The phoneme {{IPA|/v/}} in Japanese is used properly only in loanwords, where the preference for either {{IPA|/v/}} or {{IPA|/b/}} depends on many factors; in general, words that are perceived to be in common use tend toward {{IPA|/b/}}.
*{{langx|pl|fał}} {{IPA|pl|'faw|}}
*{{langx|pt|vê}} {{IPA|pt|ˈve|}}
*{{langx|es|uve}} {{IPA|es|ˈuβe|}} is recommended, but {{lang|es|ve}} {{IPA|es|ˈbe|}} is traditional. If {{vr|v}} is referred to as the latter, it would have the same pronunciation as the letter {{vr|b}} in Spanish (i.e. {{IPA|es|ˈbe|}} after pause or nasal sound, otherwise {{IPA|es|ˈβe|}});<ref>{{cite book |title=La tribuna del idioma |last=Díez Losada |first=Fernando |year=2004 |publisher=Editorial Tecnologica de CR |language=es |isbn= 978-9977-66-161-2 |page=176 }}</ref> thus further terms are needed to distinguish {{lang|es|ve}} from {{lang|es|be}}. In some countries it is called {{lang|es|ve corta}}, {{lang|es|ve baja}}, {{lang|es|ve pequeña}}, {{lang|es|ve chica}} or {{lang|es|ve [[labiodental]]}}.
