That isn't true. The letter "v" is a vowel in Cherokee, a consonant in Czech, and (often) a semivowel in Danish.


Please stop talking as though you are a Unicode authority, Philippe. You are an enthusiastic beginner. There is nothing wrong with that. Good luck with your studies. As I said once before, if you do your homework you could well be as valuable a participant to our work as Doug Ewell is. But for now, your pretense at expertise just makes a lot of people annoyed with you.

Perhaps Patrick Andries' French translation of the text of the standard will be of assistance to you.
