In everyday English "UV" is used three ways. As a noun: "too much UV is bad for you." As an adjective before another noun: "UV light," "UV rays," "UV protection," "a UV index of 11." And in fixed labels you will see on products here in Taiwan: "UV cut," "anti-UV," "UPF 50+." People say the two letters separately, "you-vee," never "uhv." One thing worth knowing: UV goes through clouds and glass differently from ordinary light, which is why you can burn on a grey day and why drivers get more sun damage on one arm.
