Usually only a, e, i, o and u are considered vowels.

A, E, I, O, U and sometimes Y are vowels.

Y is not a vowel. Y does not come out as a vowel in Countdown.



Hmm, pie.

Yes, wikipedia, the great source and factual place we all should trust. Oh look, I've found something on wikipedia too, quoted from the 'Words without vowels' page:

"However, there are many words that do not contain a vowel letter (defined as A, E, I, O, U) in their written form. In most of these, such as try, the letter Y stands for a vowel sound. (Abbreviations such as km are not considered words in their own right.)"

Y has a vowel 'sound', doesn't mean it's a vowel.

If it was a vowel I would have been taught it at school as a kid, I wasn't therefore it isn't.

may i interrupt the great vowel discussion and remind the participants that the thread is called "funny pictures" and not "funny sounds"

OT:

the crack looks like a Y by the way



“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

I WAS taught that Y was a vowel in school as a kid.  What now.
