V.

Read a random definition: evasion of tax

A quick definition of V.:

V. is an abbreviation that can mean several things. It can stand for "versus," which means "against" or "competing with." It can also stand for "volume," which refers to the amount of space something takes up. Another meaning is "verb," which is a type of word that describes an action or state of being. In addition, "V." can refer to Queen Victoria, who was the Queen of England from 1837 to 1901. Another abbreviation that uses the letter "V." is "vide," which means "see" in Latin. Finally, "voce" is another Latin term that can be abbreviated as "V.," and it means "voice."

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: V is an abbreviation that can have several meanings:

  1. VERSUS: used to show two opposing sides, for example, in a court case, "Smith v. Johnson."
  2. Volume: used to indicate the number or quantity of something, for example, "The encyclopedia has 20 volumes."
  3. Verb: used to indicate a word that expresses an action or state of being, for example, "run" or "is."
  4. Victoria: used to refer to Queen Victoria, who ruled England from 1837 to 1901.
  5. Vide: a Latin term meaning "see," used in phrases such as "q.v." (quod vide) which means "which see."
  6. Voce: a Latin term meaning "voice."

For example, if you see a legal case titled "Smith v. Johnson," the "v" stands for "versus" and indicates that the two parties are opposing each other in court. Another example is when you see a book series advertised as having "10 volumes," the "v" stands for "volume" and indicates the number of books in the series.
