I'm assuming that you want to know when the letter "y" is a vowel.
It's mostly a matter of sound. The y in yellow is a consonant, because of the way it's pronounced ( and being followed by a vowel helps, too ). At the end of a word like baby, the y is used to make a separate syllable, so it's a vowel.
For more fun, try and figure out when a "w" is a vowel.
