@amisis there's no vowel on your word "nymph" xD sorry just noticed it ^_^

 

scroll

thankyou, you know i thought the same thing after i decided to post that word. but where i'm from US there a sub-rule if you will says:vowels are AEIOU & sometimes Y when there are only consonents. However,there are conflicting answers for "y" as a vowel. i also read that in other languages, such as French it is [/i considered a vowel.

 

a wiki Answer:

Y is considered as a vowel in words with no other vowels such as cry, fly, by, fry, lynx, SYZYGY(the alignment of planets)etc. Y is considered consonent when the word has other vowels such as you, way, day, etc.

since i always look @ not just one, but many sources to look for an answer to check for credibility, & the answers were about 2/3 for & 1/3 against i can't confidently say its true. i just remembered the 'rule' from back in elementary school^^ & it seems liked its been fudged a bit.

 

again,thankyou
