From Upsilon to the Letter Y

The letter Y has an interesting history as it comes from the Greek letter upsilon.

The Greeks used the letter in their language and the Romans later used the letter Y in Latin writing for words borrowed from Greek.

This puts the letter Y in an interesting position as its use in English is connected, in part, to Greek influence and Latin writing.

The letter Y has a versatile use in the English language as it can be both a vowel and a consonant.

This same flexibility can be seen in the cursive script of the letter Y as while the lowercase y has a loop at the bottom, it also connects to the next letter.

Using these letter Y worksheets will help the student keep control of the script of this particular letter.
