The Silent vāv (Persian: واو معدوله, romanized: Vāv-e Ma'dule; Urdu: واؤ معدولہ, romanized: Vāw-i Ma'dula) is an element of Persian and Urdu orthography resulting when a vāv is preceded by khe and followed by an alef or ye, forming the combination of خوا or خوی, in which the vāv is silenced. It is always written but not typically spoken, except for in certain eastern Persian dialects wherein it is pronounced. If not followed by a long vowel, the vāv following a khe sometimes adopts the [o] sound of the short vowel Zamme/Pish.
