The vowel sound in "boy" is the diphthong /ɔɪ/. It is a combination of two vowel sounds, /ɔ/ and /ɪ/.
Just say like your ripping off a band aid :)
The vowel sound in "boy" is spelled with the letters "o" and "y". It is a diphthong sound, represented by the letters "oy" in this case.
Sky is a name and has no vowels. --- I'm sorry to say this answer is incorrect. Obviously this person is not aware that y is both a consonant and a vowel in the English language. The rule of thumb is...If the y has a "ya" sound, as in yellow or yes, it is a consonant.If the y takes on the sound of a vowel, it is a vowel. Examples?Boy has the same oi sound as oil, making y a vowel replacing i.Happy has a hard e sound and is replaced by i in happiness, making it a vowel.Memory has the same hard e and is replaced by ie in memories, making it a vowel.In every instance named...Lynn, Gwyn...y is, in fact, a vowel replacing the short i.
Actually it is a boy's name. So if you are having a girl call it Layla Priya or Riya
that is an impossibility
Lynn, girl's name No
The name is known to be used as a boy's name, having origins from African. It can also be used as a girl's name, although this is seemingly not as common.
Some words that have the same vowel sound as "boy" include joy, toy, coy, and deploy.

Yes, "boy" is a short vowel word because the "o" makes a short /ɔ/ sound.
