The Letter U coloring pages

Why color the letter u pictures?

The letter U is the twenty-first letter of the Latin alphabet and its last vowel. In Spanish and in various languages, two dots are placed above the letter U (ü), called the diaeresis, and they are used to highlight the pronunciation of this letter when it appears between a G and an E or I.

The letter U was the last vowel added to the alphabet, because before that the letter V was used to serve as both a consonant and a vowel. The letter was written in uppercase as “V” and in lowercase as “u”, until the sixteenth century when both letters were separated.

Oops, it looks like we are running out of lines to tell you about this curious letter, but don't worry! Above each one of the letter U coloring pages we have left a little fun fact that is sure to surprise you.
