Digamma \Di*gam"ma\, n. [Gr. ?; ? = ? twice + ? the letter ?. So called because it resembled two gammas placed one above the other.] (Gr. Gram.) A letter (?, ?) of the Greek alphabet, which early fell into disuse. Note: This form identifies it with the Latin F, though in sound it is said to have been nearer V. It was pronounced, probably, much like the English W.
