Ü is not just "funny U"

As someone with an ø in my real name, I have had to explain it so many times 😮‍💨

Once, back when I was still on fb, some troll reported me for using a "fake" name based on it and I had to send fb a picture of my passport to reactivate my account 🤬

With a language that can't even comprehend all of their own letters and has to call one "double-U", they can't comprehend additional letters...

With English as my only language I can confirm

Our brains go to mush like seeing a biblically accurate angel as we cannot the fathom the sheer infinity of another letter
