Vav II: OH so much better
So Vav's a pretty funky letter. Not only can it be a consonant with a "V" sound (remember
the vase?) but it can also be a vowel: 
That's right, with the mere addition of one little dot on its head, our flowery Vav turns into a vowel
with the sound of "OH!" It's a very enthusiastic vowel.
Now, how do we remember this one? Let's imagine that you take an ORANGE, and throw it OVER the 
. It might look something like this:
How about some examples? Try to read the following words!
(dod) - Means uncle.
(dov) - Means bear.
(oh) - Means or.
The cool thing is, you can toss your orange over just about any letter...
