Υ, υ (название: и́псилон, греч. ύψιλον, др.-греч. ὖ ψιλόν) — 20-я буква греческого алфавита. В системе греческой алфавитной записи чисел имеет числовое значение 400. Происходит от финикийской буквы 𐤅 — вав. От буквы ипсилон произошли латинские буквы U, V, W и Y, кириллическая ижица (Ѵ) (косвенным образом, через диграф — У) и разнообразные их модификации.

В русском языке нет точного соответствия древнегреческому звуку [y], поэтому его обычно передают буквами «ю» либо «и». Истинное же произношение лежит между ними (чтобы его воспроизвести, рекомендуют сложить губы для произношения у, а языком произносить и).

Строчной ипсилон (υ) часто путают со строчной же буквой ню (ν); отличие в нижней части: у буквы ню она заостренная, а у ипсилона — круглая.

История

Древнегреческое название ὖ ψιλόν обозначает «простое „у“» — в противоположность составному, выражаемому диграфом ου.

Первоначально буква υ обозначала звук [u] (русское «у»), а также использовалась как компонент диграфов αυ, ευ, ου, обозначавших соответствующие дифтонги. В результате фонетических изменений в греческом языке уже в классическое время она стала обозначать звук [y] (как буква U во французском языке или Ü (U с умлаутом) в немецком); в то же время диграф ου, ранее обозначавший дифтонг [ou], стал читаться как просто [u]. В современном же греческом языке υ обозначает звук [i] (русское «и»), а в позиции между гласными — звук [v] (русское «в»).

Υ, υ (название: и́псилон, греч. ύψιλον) — 20-я буква греческого алфавита. В системе греческой алфавитной записи чисел имеет числовое значение 400. Происходит от финикийской буквы — вав. От буквы «ипсилон» произошли латинские буквы U, V, W и Y, кириллическая ижица (Ѵ) (косвенным образом, через ди- и триграфы, также У и Ю) и разнообразные их модификации.

Первоначально буква υ обозначала звук [u] (русское «у»), а также использовалась как компонент диграфов αυ, ευ, ου, обозначавших соответствующие дифтонги. В результате фонетических изменений в греческом языке уже в классическое время она стала обозначать звук [y] (как буква u во французском языке или ü в немецком); в то же время диграф ου, ранее обозначавший дифтонг [ou], стал читаться как просто [u]. В современном же греческом языке υ обозначает звук [i] (русское «и»), а в позиции между гласными — звук [v] (русское «в»).

В русском языке нет точного соответствия древнегреческому звуку [y], поэтому его обычно передают буквами «ю» либо «и». Истинное же произношение лежит между ними (чтобы его воспроизвести, рекомендуют сложить губы для произношения у, а языком произносить и).

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Not to be confused with Epsilon.

This article is about the Greek upsilon. For the Latin upsilon, see ʊ. For other uses, see Upsilon (disambiguation).

Upsilon (, ;^{[1][2][3][4][5][6]} uppercase Υ, lowercase υ; Greek: ύψιλον ýpsilon [ˈipsilon]) or ypsilon ^[1] is the 20th letter of the Greek alphabet. In the system of Greek numerals, Υʹ has a value of 400. It is derived from the Phoenician waw .

Etymology

The name of the letter was originally just «υ» (y; also called hy, hence «hyoid», meaning «shaped like the letter υ»), but the name changed to «υ ψιλόν» u psilon ‘simple u’ to distinguish it from οι, which had come to have the same [y] pronunciation.^[7]

Pronunciation

In early Attic Greek (6th century BCE), it was pronounced [u] (a close back rounded vowel like the English «long o͞o»).^[8][9] In Classical Greek, it was pronounced [y] (a close front rounded vowel), at least until 1030.^[10] In Modern Greek, it is pronounced [i]; in the digraphs αυ and ευ, as [f] or [v]; and in the digraph ου as [u]. In ancient Greek, it occurred in both long and short versions, but Modern Greek does not have a length distinction.

As an initial letter in Classical Greek, it always carried the rough breathing (equivalent to h) as reflected in the many Greek-derived English words, such as those that begin with hyper- and hypo-. This rough breathing was derived from an older pronunciation that used a sibilant instead; this sibilant was not lost in Latin, giving rise to such cognates as super- (for hyper-) and sub- (for hypo-).

Upsilon participated as the second element in falling diphthongs, which have subsequently developed in various ways.

Correspondence with Latin Y

The usage of Y in Latin dates back to the first century BC. It was used to transcribe loanwords from Greek, so it was not a native sound of Latin and was usually pronounced /u/ or /i/. The latter pronunciation was the most common in the Classical period and was used mostly by uneducated people. The Roman Emperor Claudius proposed introducing a new letter into the Latin alphabet to transcribe the so-called sonus medius (a short vowel before labial consonants), but in inscriptions, the new letter was sometimes used for Greek upsilon instead.

Four letters of the Latin alphabet arose from it: and U , Y and, much later, V and W. In the Cyrillic script, the letters U (У, у) and izhitsa (Ѵ, ѵ) arose from it.

In some languages, including German and Portuguese, the name upsilon (Ypsilon in German, ípsilon in Portuguese) is used to refer to the Latin letter Y as well as the Greek letter. In some other languages, the (Latin) Y is referred to as a «Greek I» (i griega in Spanish, i grec in French), also noting its Greek origin.

Usage

• In particle physics the capital Greek letter ϒ denotes an Upsilon particle. Note that the symbol should always look like in order to avoid confusion with a Latin Y denoting the hypercharge. This may be done either with a font such as FreeSerif or with the dedicated Unicode character U+03D2 ϒ.
• Automobile manufacturer Lancia has a model called the Ypsilon. See Lancia Ypsilon.
• In the International Phonetic Alphabet, the symbol ⟨ʋ⟩ is used to represent a labiodental approximant.
• In astrophysics and physical cosmology, ϒ refers to the mass-to-light ratio.^[11]
• In statistics, it is sometimes used instead of v or nu to indicate degrees of freedom^[12]

Similar appearance

• A similar symbol (Unicode ♈ U+2648) is used for the astrological sign of Aries.

Symbolism

Upsilon is known as Pythagoras’ letter, or the Samian letter, because Pythagoras used it as an emblem of the path of virtue or vice.^[13] As the Roman writer Persius wrote in Satire III:

and the letter which spreads out into Pythagorean branches has pointed out to you the steep path which rises on the right.^[14]

Lactantius, an early Christian author (ca. 240 – ca. 320), refers to this:

For they say that the course of human life resembles the letter Y, because every one of men, when he has reached the threshold of early youth, and has arrived at the place «where the way divides itself into two parts,» is in doubt, and hesitates, and does not know to which side he should rather turn himself.^[15]
