Rhythm, tympani, myth, synthesize, and many more. Also, many words that end in y. Happy, fly, properly. All of these that end in y, y functions as a vowel. (I am honestly not sure about words like "may", "day", "play" would that be a dipthong vowel?) English is a vowel/consonant spoken language. If y follows a consonant, chances are it is a vowel. This is not always true, as in "lanyard", it is a consonant. Whenever it sounds like the "y" in the word "you", it is a consonant.
Here are some words which have all the vowels used:
facetious
miscellaneous
enumeration
gubernatorial
education
adventitious
pasteurization
authentication
aeronautic
accentuation
attenuation
authorize
automobile
boardinghouse
cauliflower
boundaries
communicate
beautification
telecommunication
argillaceous
farinaceous
republication
somersaulting
questionnaire
pandemonium
ostentatious
Abstemious and facetious have them all, and in the correct order. Sequoia is probably one of the shortest words which has all the vowels in it. In science, the term surface tension has all the vowels in it.
facetiously abstemiously
Cwm - type of valley (from the Welsh). Nth - An indefinite number.
Words with all the vowels in order include abstemiously.
The vowels are A(a),E(e),I(i),O(o) and U(u).....there are no other English vowels.
Facetiously has all 6 in order
If we consider AY and OY as vowel pairs, many words have Y as a vowel. Unless it is making a consonant Y sound as in yet or yellow, it is a vowel. It can have a long I, short I, or long E sound.Words where Y is the only vowel include by, try, why, myth, hymn, and rhythm.
All words have to have a vowel in them. The five orthodox ones are a,e,i,o,u. However in words such as 'why' and 'sky', the 'y' can be taken to be the vowel. Y is considered a semi-vowel.
I don't think so, if i remember correctly "y" is only a vowel when there is no actual vowel in the word. ex: my Actually, y is a vowel if it sounds like i, as in fry or puny, or in other words, at the end of a word or syllable. At the beginning, it makes the sound of y in you.
Some words that start with a vowel and end in a Y are:animosityanyelectrifyenemyeveryexactlyonlyorneryuglyusury
vowel
No, in the word "jaunty", the letter y is functioning as a consonant, not a vowel. It makes a consonant sound at the beginning of the word.
Y is never a vowel It can often be found in words that have no vowels
"Y" is sometimes referred to as a semivowel. In this case, the sound "y" makes is the "ee" vowel sound, so it acts as a vowel. In English "y" is sometimes considered the only semivowel, but some, including myself, also count "w" as a semivowel.
In both of those words Y is considered a vowel. It is a consonant when it is used before a vowel at the beginning of a words or when it separates two vowels.
No, the 'y' in the word away is not a vowel, seeing not only as how the 'a' prior to it is a vowel, but the actual sound it makes when pronounced aloud. 'Y' is more commonly used as a vowel in words like:~Crypt~Fry~Gym~EyeThe letter is used as a consonant--at the beginning of a word most of the time--in words like:~Yellow~Year~YakHope this helps!
Yes, in the word "sky," the letter Y is functioning as a vowel.
