End of Alphabet Shenanigans

here becomes there if one adds a T
and where when one adds a W
and zher, which is ‘here’ in Mandarin  
if one removes an E and adds a Z
which rhymes with V
though some pronounce it Zed
which rhymes with Ted
which brings us back to T 
almost nothing rhymes with W
but I really want to do U 
and make S rhyme with X
and you know Y.
