      “Every single other letter is one syllable, can we just pronounce this one ‘wuh’”?

      “No, it must have THREE!”

          Germans: “Ridiculous! We will pronounce it like ‘vay’”.

          “Well, that’s a lot…”

          “…AND ‘Y’ WILL BE ‘OOPSILON’”!

          ಠ_ಠ

              They do, but it’s silly when the vast majority of letters are pronounced with one syllable.
