词汇	u
词源	U. The letters U and V were at first interchangeable in En- glish, the letters not separated in dictionaries until the early 19th century (upon, for example, was often spelled vpon). U in recent times has become a humorous term for “upper class” or “correct,” non-u or un-u being its opposite.
