The Wikipedia has the following information about this codepoint:
Waw (wΔw "hook") is the sixth letter of the Semitic abjads, including Phoenician wΔw π€ , Aramaic waw π‘ , Hebrew vav Χ, Syriac waw ά and Arabic wΔw Ω (sixth in abjadi order; 27th in modern Arabic order).
It represents the consonant [w] in classical Hebrew, and [v] in modern Hebrew, as well as the vowels [u] and [o]. In text with niqqud, a dot is added to the left or on top of the letter to indicate, respectively, the two vowel pronunciations.
It is the origin of Greek Ο (digamma) and Ξ₯ (upsilon), Cyrillic Π£, Latin F and V and later Y, and the derived Latin- or Roman-alphabet letters U and W.
