u, v, and w are all really close to each other (u and w, the 24th and 25th letters of the alphabet to be invented are both variants of v; j (26th) is a variant of i...) from a historical linguistics standpoint...

I'm having a hard time understanding the f-w relationship. I've taken Latin and Greek, and i can't figure out the morphological relationship of f to w.

Okay, the 'w' sound from Latin becomes a 'v' sound in German. The 'v' sound of German is transmuted to an 'f' sound. Now, as far as the superscript F and the subscript u, I have no idea. So, what's the answer?
