Ư is one of the 12 Vietnamese language vowels. It is pronounced as the close central unrounded vowel [ɨ].
This symbol does not exist in many fonts, and rarely included on keyboards, so it is often written as either u+ or u*. The VIQR standard is u+.
Because Vietnamese is a tonal language this letter may optionally have any one of the 5 tonal symbols above or below it.
- Ừ ừ
- Ứ ứ
- Ử ử
- Ữ ữ
- Ự ự
