W is a vowel sometimes, as is Y. There are words in Welsh that use only a W.
An example would be the word tow. Without the W the O would not be long. This illustrates that the W is forming a diphthong, which mirrors the use of the letter U from which it developed. After a vowel, W is considered as a vowel, with an "au, oo, or oh" sound. Before a vowel it is considered a consonant, with its "wh" sound.
The general consensus/usual understanding is that a e i o and u are vowels and every other letter is a consonant.
Well, I'd say that even if it is technically a consonant, I consider it a vowel, because it follows all the vowel rules. You do not touch your tongue to the roof of your mouth when saying it, and the only word it has just it as a consonant is 'are', making me believe it is a vowel.
No, the vowels are A E I O U, sometimes Y, and very occasionally W (most often in rarely used words deriving from Welsh, such as "cwm").The letter "C" is a consonant.
Neither, light is a word.A consonant or a vowel is a letter. eg 'c' is a consonant and 'e' is a vowel.
A hypothesis is correct grammar here's why:A hypothesis is correct because 'h' is not a vowel. for example in the fragment: a cat, c is not a vowel so 'a' applies. If on the other hand it says 'an' animal, 'an' is correct because the a in animal is a vowel.
The word cash begins and ends with consonant sounds, the c and the sh. The middle letter a is a vowel.
The word celebrate does have the soft c sound.Soft C's have the S sound to them.A hard c is usually followed by A, O, or U and is pronounced as K.A soft c is usually followed by E, I, or Y and is pronounced as S.Some examples of Soft C words:CeaseCedarCedeCederCelebrateCelebrationCelebrityCeleryCelestialCelibateCellarCellCementCemeteryCenotaphCentennialCenterCentimeterCentipedeCentralCentCenturionCenturyCerealCerebellumCerebrumCeriseCertainCesareanCessationCesspoolCiderCigaretteCigarCilantroCinchCinderCinemaCinnamonCinquainCisternCiteCitizenCitrusCityCivilianCivilizationCivilCyanCylinderCymbalCypressCystCytoplasm
