	Upsilon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Upsilon (upper case Υ, lower case υ) is the 20th letter of the Greek alphabet.
		Upsilon participated as the second element in falling diphthongs, which have subsequently developed in various ways: for instance after alpha or epsilon it is pronounced f or v.
		The Roman Emperor Claudius proposed introducing a new letter into the Latin alphabet to approximate the sound of upsilon, but in due course the letter Y was adopted instead.

	Interloping Scripts
		The IPA version of the gamma, upsilon, and phi, for instance, have true serifs, which are alien to the Greek typographical tradition.
		The real justification for their disjunction, where other letters have been borrowed into the IPA from Greek, is that they are not limited to phonetic usage; they have been adopted in the widely used, and largely IPA-based, Practical Orthography of African languages.
		This is resolved for Latin mathematical letters in a Latin context by the use of italics—or of plenty of indentation.

		Because the lettering on these dies was entirely cut by hand, there was no chance for the mechanical reproduction of the variation.
		The variant letter was therefore a deliberate act of the engraver, as opposed to a failure in striking or an isolated slip of the tool.
		If the engraver of the upsilon letter variation was employed with any regularity and was not corrected until 82 or 83, we should see many examples of the variation in the abundant third issue of 81.

	OMEGA OMEGA CHAPTER-Historical Review
		Omicron Kappa Upsilon (OKU) had its inception with the class of 1914 at Northwestern University Dental School.
		But the most original request was the one conveyed to me in a telephone conversation with Dr. Arthur D. Black when he asked me to 'think up' Greek letters for the new honor society in the Dental School, and to design a key as a badge.
		Upsilon is the Greek letter which under certain conditions indicates the sound of the English letter 'h.'

		The Greek letter societies had taken over the high offices of these societies and had begun to ignore the "Barbarians" (Independents).
		At first, they were organized almost for literary work, but as they grew in strength and numbers and the feelings of brotherhood became stronger and stronger, they began to adopt principles upon which a fraternity could be based.
		On May 21, a letter was sent to the Michigan Chapter of Delta Upsilon, making general inquiries.

	the letter Y \| Antimoon Forum
		The letter Y is neither a vowel or a consonant.
		Tom's correct, "y" is a letter not a sound, vowels and consonants are sounds not letters.
		The letter "y" is not a vowel, consonant, semi-consonant, semi-vowel or part-time vowel; it's a letter.

	Letters and Sounds
		Notice that even in the beginning there was ambiguity as to the sound associated with upsilon (ipsilon).
		In English, the letter A is commonly associated with the /uh/ sound as in Greek.
		The correspondence between Greek sounds and letters (or combination of letters) from the Latin alphabet is not the standard one that is used in Modern Greek through English books.

		The twenty-fifth letter of the English alphabet derived from the Greek T. One of the symbols of Pythagoras was the Greek letter Upsilon, T. for which, on account of the similarity of shape, the Romans adopted the letter Y of their own alphabet.
		Pythagoras said that the two horns of the letter symbolized the two different paths of virtue and vice, the right branch leading to the former and the left to the latter.
		The Hebrew letter Is, equivalent in sound to I or Y. It is the initial letter of the word Jehovah, the Tetragrammaton, and hence was peculiarly sacred among the Talmudists.

		The letters are quite visible on a positive-body, life-size direct photograph of the head taken by Enrie in 1931, as well as the photograph taken by Pia in 1898.
		The letters are not nearly so apparent on the 1978 photographs because some of the threads running through the right eye area apparently had been pulled or rotated during the 1973 showing of the Shroud, fragmenting the images somewhat.
		On examining the Filas lepton and the image on the Shroud, it is apparent that the letter at the end of the abbreviation for Tiberius is indeed the Greek letter Upsilon, which looks like a U with a small tail on it.

		Therefore when a Greek letter organization was formed in 1989, we knew it would not be the same as at other schools.
		Not only are Greek letter organization leaders active participants in all facets of our campus life (not just social, but educational and community service endeavors as well), but our Greek letter organizations provide their members with opportunities to be campus leaders -- and the results are clear.
		Their constant willingness to provide assistance where it is needed is a model for today's move toward more civic mindedness.

	Chapter Y <i>to</i> Yaup of Y by Webster's Dictionary (1913 Edition)
		Y, the twenty-fifth letter of the English alphabet, at the beginning of a word or syllable, except when a prefix is usually a fricative vocal consonant; as a prefix, and usually in the middle or at the end of a syllable, it is a vowel.
		It derives its form from the Latin Y, which is from the Greek &UPSILON, originally the same letter as V. Etymologically, it is most nearly related to u, i, o, and j.
		Y has been called the Pythagorean letter, because the Greek letter &UPSILON was taken represent the sacred triad, formed by the duad proceeding from the monad; and also because it represents the dividing of the paths of vice and virtue in the development of human life.

	Sorting the letter ÞORN
		A derived letter is one which is, in terms of its historical development, based on one or more other Latin characters, whether by some deformation of the character itself, or by the addition of one or more modifying marks or signs.
		It is an additional letter borrowed from the Runic fuþorc and is not derived from any other Latin letter; therefore it is not subordinate to any other Latin letter.
		The position for ÞORN should either be as a separate letter after Z, or as a separate letter after T and before U. These two are the historical options for all languages in which ÞORN was actually used.

	The Greek Alphabet For People Who Don't Know Greek
		Once you know the names of the letters, this system is incredibly easy since the names of each letter begin with the letter(s) we use to transliterate.
		So the first letter is Alpha (= a in basic transliteration), the second Beta (= b), the third Gamma (= g) and so on all the way down to Chi (= ch), Psi (= ps) and Omega (= ô;).
		Another difficulty is with the letter upsilon, which, if it comes after another vowel, is U as you would expect, but if it's in between two consonants, it is usually transliterated as Y. So

		Thirteen of the last 14 letters in the last line of the 3-part cipher form an anagram for "HITTITE EMPIRE." If you take all the non-alphabetic characters on the Mt. Diablo cipher and replace them with their equivalents from the 3-part cipher you get "ILIAD ALEX LDI" in that order.
		My rather amateur analysis of such a translation would yield a multi-choice symbol table, where the encryptor can choose between a letter or a symbol to represent the letter to be encrypted, kind of like the way that you figure out what your phone number would spell.
