the only letter whose name doesn’t include the sound it makes

I'm trying to figure out if the author pronounces H with a Tom Brokaw "haitch" or an Elvis Presley "aitchuhh".

And, of course, w's name does contain one of the vowel sounds that w forms (the long u), just like y's does (the long i). Neither of those letters name contains their own consonant sound.

Wait, when does 'w' make the sound [u] (as opposed to [w] or [ʊ])?

[chalst]

If you allow it to be assisted by another letter (as we must in the case of Q), "few" rhymes with "you".

Yes, because there's two of them.
