Written after the writing. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, use of the word “postscribere” is attributed to Tacitus (56–120 AD) — who was living at the same time as Claudia Severa.

During the Late Middle Ages, two minuscule glyphs developed which were both used for sounds including /u/ and modern /v/. The pointed form “v” was written at the beginning of a word, while a rounded form “u” was used in the middle or end, regardless of sound.

Û, û (u-circumflex) is a letter of the Latin script.

To make the French U sound, pucker your lips while leaving a small hole, and keep them rounded while saying “ee.” Accents make no difference to the pronunciation of U. 2. [ɥ] – the letter U is pronounced kind of like an English w (but with tightly pursed lips) whenever it’s followed by a vowel.
