In what words does f sound like v?

There are no words in the English language where the letter "f" is pronounced as "v".

The letter "f" consistently makes the /f/ sound, while "v" makes the /v/ sound.

However, there are some instances where the sounds might be confused due to regional accents or differences in pronunciation. For example:

* In some dialects of English, the "f" sound at the end of words can be pronounced more like a "v", especially after a vowel. For instance, "roof" might sound more like "roo-v".

* In some languages, the letter "f" can be pronounced as a "v" sound. For instance, in Spanish, "f" is often pronounced as "v".
