==German==

===Pronunciation===
* {{IPA|de|/ɛf/|[ʔɛf]|a=letter name}}
** {{audio|de|De-F.OGG}}
* {{IPA|de|/f/|a=phoneme}}
** The pronunciation {{IPAchar|/v/}} for ‹f› is de-facto standard in inflections and derivatives of the numbers {{m|de|fünf}}, {{m|de|elf}}, {{m|de|zwölf}}, as well as inflections of {{m|de|doof}}. Here the pronunciation {{IPAchar|/f/}} usually sounds “wrong” to speakers from northern and central Germany, though it is normal in Austria, Switzerland, South Tyrol, and (partially) southern Germany. Northern speakers may also use {{IPAchar|/v/}} in other words (e.g. inflections of {{m|de|schief}}, {{m|de|steif}}), but these are informal.
