Saying and writing Waw
How to say it
Make your lips into a little circle and say w. After a damma it makes the long oo sound, as in noor.
Don't mix it up
و has the same tail as ر, with a little round head on top.
Hear Waw and its picture words on the letter Waw page.
For grown-ups
- Every row starts on the right. A small sticker on the right-hand margin is a great reminder.
- Say the sound each time: “Waw… w”.
- Trace the model letter with a finger first, following the arrows, then use a pencil.
- Use a thick crayon or triangular pencil for little hands — and stop while it's still fun.
- Print at 100% ("actual size"). Ink-saver line art is the default, so colouring in is part of the fun.
