It's not closer to U than it is to O.
I'd say it's a mix between O and E. Before we used Ø, we wrote OE instead.
I don't get Ø anymore.
THANK GOD WE ONLY HAVE A, E, I, O, and U as our vowels.
Btw, I don't want to learn Spanish, because I think Mexican people are bad...
Wow, from the Unbelievable New Doomsday, to a catchy day called Thorsday, to Sundae and Sunday, to Søndag, to pronouncing the letter Ø, this conversation has gone all over the place.
