uva
/ˈuba/ · B2 · noun · f
grape
🍇 uva sounds like OO-bah: say 'ooh, bah!' while popping one grape in your mouth
Say 'ooh' as if tasting something sweet, then 'bah' as you finish it: OO-bah, uva. Spanish b/v sound the same, so the v in uva is pronounced like a soft b. Related to English 'uvula', named in Latin for its grape-like shape.
